Ideas a builder, maker or community group could start on:
- A specialized tax calculator tool that allows users to input multiple Schedule C business incomes to determine aggregate solo 401k contribution limits.
- A simplified, plain-language guide or flow chart specifically for multi-entity self-employed individuals regarding retirement plan contribution rules.
- A community-verified database of tax scenarios for solo 401k contributors to compare how others in similar multi-business situations have handled reporting.
