Sherri, Sherri... If I say I use my computer an AVERAGE of 4 hours per day, and an AVERAGE of 1 hour is used on my investments, I claim a deduction of 25%, and the IRS doesn't question it; it's simple. Why would they? It's reasonable, it's appropriate use, they don't expect you to hire someone with a stopwatch to time you and see what website you're looking at each minute of each day. (But if you DID hire such a person, you'd be able to deduct THEIR salary too, lol)

I'm going to go with Thor, while preparing for an audit. People are too afraid of Audits. If it happens, it happens. I'll just give the money back. I wouldn't be doing anything illegal as far as I'm concerned.
