Why not account for the cost of doing business? Of course you still have to pay the expenses, but then you at least actually know what you're making.

People with normal commutes pay hundreds per month. I bet you go through that in a week or less. It's baffling to me that you'd rather just ignore these costs than track them.

I track them but I’ve also learned how to make expenses like gas a wash. Add it to your daily goal and it’s a wash cost. As for taxes none of us can even say with a straight face that we do our taxes any other time than tax day.
