Can I write off as a business expense my LIFETIME FITNESS expense?

Ardelia Liptow: NOPEDoesn't qualifyMany cases with country clubs, golf memberships for networking, etc.

Daren Ventrice: Fitness plans are not tax deductible nor are they legitimate business expenses.IF it hypothetical were deductible, you would have to amortize the membership cost over your lifetime and could not deduct it in a single year.

Cassidy Pangrazio: No.To be deductible, an expense must be "Ordinary" and "Necessary".This is neither.
