If you a single person corporation, you probably won't be able to avoid
taxes completely. You'll either have to do some sort of profit sharing
thing (in which case you won't have anything to live off of if the Corp is
your only business) or you'll have to give yourself a salary, which would
be an expense for the business.
I'm not a lawyer nor an accountant of course. So, I suggest talking to
each one before starting a business.
A few years back I put a lot into business expenses mainly software and
office furniture. However, items like your weekly grocery bill and Harry
Potter memorabilia will not fall under valid business expenses.
