For another installment of insane world of tax deductions, we take a look at, now aptly name, Chesty Love. This exotic dancer was able to successfully sue the IRS for her new breast implants to be considered a business deduction. Ms. Love was tired of the competitive nature of her job so she went straight to the source of higher tips – larger implants. She didn’t stop at any normal implant though, Ms. Love ended her procedure with a size 56 FF where each implant weighed 10 pounds.
This is how Ms. Love was able to convince the court that her implants should be a business deduction – she argued that they were useless outside the context of her job, that she planned to remove them once retired, and that they weren’t for appearance enhancement (in fact, she was continually ridiculed on the streets for her appearance). The court agreed, stating on record that her implants were so large that they could’ve only been for business purposes.
