Author Topic: Professional bodybuilder's posing oil and buffalo meat as an exepense (Read 8381 times)

loco · « **on:** March 07, 2011, 05:34:35 AM »

A professional bodybuilder from Wisconsin once tried to claim buffalo meat, "posing oil" and protein shakes as business expenses -- adding up to more than $4,000.

He claimed he ate buffalo meat for muscle development because it has more protein than other meats -- and he consumed three pounds of the meat per day, year round, according to court documents.

But the court found the meat to be a personal expense because it can be eaten by anyone.

He was, however, able to deduct oils and tanning products, including ProTan Muscle Juice Professional Posing Oil, which he applied to his skin to "enhance his appearance."

The court allowed these items because they "were marketed only through bodybuilding publications and were not generally for sale through normal marketing outlets."

Spot on, it's not even against the law if you find a doc for the prescriptions.

Yes, I was walking home from a bar drunk here in las vegas and someone called the cops. I actually left my car at the bar, I'm kind of built like paul bunion, tall and big, and there were at least 3 cops called.

I think it was all for personal use. Just imagine if he eats meat as well. I’d imagine he imports the best quality meat as well from Nebraska, consisting of only Omaha steaks.

No I believe it’s the kind you find in water..

I spend that on food a week.
I don't even eat that much.
Mostly fish I import from seattle
finest cuts of meat and chicken.
Organic Vegetables and fruits, berries.
I go out to dinner only 1x a week.
2x at the most.
