A lot of people don't like paying taxes. However, you should really look at your situation in a different light. If you're making money, you're paying taxes. Another way to look at it would be to consider the fact that if you're paying taxes, you're one of the lucky few with whom Uncle Sam wants to be a 50% business partner. If your partner Uncle Sam is getting paid, you're also most likely getting paid, barring a few exceptions.
The Internal Revenue Code provides a special provision for farmers and fisherman who have income that varies greatly from year to year called "income averaging." In addition to fluctuating income, if there is a major tax rate change as is the case for 2013, income averaging may be especially beneficial for you if you are a farmer or fisherman and are lucky enough to be subject to the top tax rate of 39.6% in 2013, 2014 and 2015.
