Well, that's what the ladies say, you know, spotted white leopard. Well, I was always an entrepreneur. I was the kid with the lemonade stand. I had a small business in high school and hiring my brother's friends and screwing things up. And, I mean, it was Tom Sawyer painting white fences, whatever it was. But I just loved entrepreneurship. And when I went on to school, I went into business.

And then I thought, hey, this accounting thing – No offense to anyone out there. I mean, marketing class, finance is tough, sure. But I don't want to work for Wall Street. So marketing, man, I'm going to go accounting because I can stand out there. If I can just get a C in accounting, I'll hire all the other A accountants.

And so sure enough, I stood out in the accounting group as the party planner. It was super fun. And then I had this teacher who was a lawyer and an accountant. And I was like, holy crap, this guy can take over the world. So you had all the benefits of understanding the numbers sitting at the table in business. And then I could freaking file a lawsuit, fight the IRS, do whatever.

And so I was like, I want to be that guy. So I went on to law school, come to find out of 100 lawyers, one of them has any tax background. And I freaking said, I'm going to Main Street, screw Wall Street. And here I am.

Isn't it true? Yeah, it's maddening. And the hard thing is taxes are law. I mean, it's tax law, you know, and understanding it. And only the big dogs or big companies have been able to afford tax lawyers. So I've worked really hard over the last 25 years building a model based on volume and a boutique where we can help clients around the country. We've been doing that.

But the important thing here is the number one cost in our lives are taxes. And people don't want to talk about it. It's too boring. It's too complex. What the hell do I do? Well, we're going to freaking demystify that. That's my whole career is to say it's not that hard. And you're the captain of your ship. Quit looking for an accountant to do it all for you. You can freaking run the ship here.
