This is a really great top ten list. Keeping good records and a hold f all documents like receipts is really important. I have a folder I start at the beginning of each year that stay out in my office so that I don't forget. Make sure you put it where you can see it everyday. You can post this to our site http://www.toptentopten.com/ and then link back to your site. We are looking for top ten lists and our users can track back to your site. The coolest feature is you can let other people vote on the rankings of your list.
