Mo’ Money Taxes Founder Won’t Let Mo’ Problems Keep Him From Serving Clients

Posted on by Adrienne Gonzalez

Somehow we missed the saga of Mo' Money Taxes. 

Here are a few stories that should get you up to speed on some of the haps at Mo' Money:

Oh, and there was also an IRS raid in April but Granberry says it wasn't so much a raid as it was him inviting the IRS over. 

Well, it appears Markey Granberry is pressing on by formally announcing a new tax preparation venture that shall rise from the ashes of Mo' Money Taxes like a phoenix with a gold chain around its neck: Marqui$ Taxe$ (because you can always trust a business with dollar signs in its name).

In the video that announces his new project, Granberry is hounded by a couple of fake media guys – one of whom was charged with sexual exploitation of a minor after posting a picture of a child under 5 years old performing a sex act on an adult male – who tell him "Markey, we’re going to be on you every chance we get!"

Granberry responds:

I know ’cause we the kings of the tax business why wouldn’t y’all be!

“The issues of delays and check issues were never the fault of Mo’ Money Taxes/MoneyCo USA," Granberry told Memphis' WREG in an email. "Thus far, no charges have been filed against no one regarding issues of last year, and we are looking forward to Marquis Taxes being a success.”

Granberry filed for creation of a new limited liability company called Next Day Dollar LLC with the Tennessee Secretary of State's Office on Oct. 31.

And now, for your viewing pleasure, the video. If you're in Memphis, you can head on over to Marquis Taxes (next to "Chucky Cheese") in 2013.

The IRS Isn’t Resting on the Sabbath

If you refuse to use the White House’s tax savings tool purely out of spite then you’ll be happy to know that 180 IRS locations across this great land will be open this Saturday to help you out with things like the Homebuyer tax credit, the American Opportunity Credit, the Making Work Pay credit, and the Expanded Earned Income Credit.

Now we realize that the mere thought of setting foot inside an IRS location will cause many you to break out in boils, the other option is to go to a VITA location and get assistance from one of the many college students out there that are giving amateur advice so that they have one more activity on their resumé. They’re available throughout tax season. They are volunteers, after all.


The Service is trying to make this sound way more fun than it actually is by calling them “open houses”:

“We are holding these special open houses to give taxpayers who are struggling in these difficult economic times more opportunity to work directly with IRS employees to resolve their tax issues,” said IRS Commissioner Doug Shulman. “We will host more than 180 open houses this Saturday.”

Whether Dougie will be on hand at one of the many locations to shed out his wisdom (or maybe get some advice) hasn’t been made clear.

More Tax Clients for Ludacris (or His CPA)

As you’re no doubt aware, the IRS has taken exception with the notion that many of our favorite celebrities and athletes can do no wrong. As detestable as this thought might be, Doug Shulman and his merry band of tax collectors are not impressed with these pillars of the community turning a blind eye to their patriotic obligations.


Some of the latest examples of celebrity tax avoidance:

• Corey Feldman – Technically it’s Corey Feldman Inc. that owes the IRS $31k but same diff.

• Faith Evans – Widow of Notorious B.I.G. Grammy winner. Soon-to-be reality TV star. The combination of these things somehow doesn’t allow her to scrape together $360k.

• Mel Blount – Okay, we have to admit that we don’t know who the hell this guy is but the sports historians and the entire city of Pittsburgh are probably familiar. For everyone else – he’s a former Steelers’ cornerback that was elected to the Hall of Fame in 1989. He owes taxes for every year from 1994 to 2006 (with the exception of ’07) for grand total of $652k. Seriously, this is f—ing ridiculous. Even Nicolas Cage manages to file a tax return once a decade. There’s not one CPA in all of the ‘Burgh that can help this guy?

As the title indicates, our advice to these people is to get in touch with Luda “I pay more in taxes than most people would ever imagine” cris ASAP. Whether he’s mastered TurboTax or managed to find a solid CPA, it doesn’t matter because, as you might recall, “you will never hear about Ludacris owing the damn IRS no damn money.”
