Are you living The Wealthy Way? In this episode, Ryan Pineda is joined by Carter and George, two financial experts with a mission to close the wealth gap by $100 billion. Carter is a millionaire CPA and tax strategist, while George manages 8-figure investment portfolios. Together, they break down the exact blueprint their high-net-worth clients follow to build and preserve wealth. You'll learn what your CPA isn't telling you, how to legally save hundreds of thousands in taxes, and how the wealthy use tax loopholes, real estate, and investment portfolios to scale. They also reveal the three levels of tax strategy, why buying back your time is more powerful than financial freedom, and how to borrow against your assets like a bank.

Whether it's to chat about this week's podcast episode or anything else on your mind: David's CalendarTakeaways: The Big Beautiful Bill is a massive 900-page law that includes tax reforms and spending changes. One major change is the extension of the 2017 tax cuts for individuals, which helps many taxpayers. Seniors will benefit from an additional $6,000 exemption, providing them with more tax relief. Another key point is the introduction of a tax credit for contributions to scholarship organizations. The standard deduction has increased by 10%, making it easier for many to reduce their taxable income. It's crucial to consult with a CPA for tax planning to maximize benefits from the new law.

Laura Cowan started her career in finance, earning a CPA and working at Ernst & Young and Goldman Sachs. When she decided to go to law school at 35, she knew that she wanted to launch a boutique firm with a practice area that complemented that financial background. Estate law seemed a good fit—but fate threw her a curve ball just as she launched her firm.“I had to turn my entire practice virtual overnight in 2020 in New York City because of COVID,” Cowan tells the ABA Journal's Lee Rawles in this episode of the Modern Law Library. “I moved to Rhode Island to shelter in place with my dad. During that couple of months that I was sheltering in place, I still had to get my law firm running. I had a business to run and bills to pay. So I made everything virtual, and I really streamlined everything. And what I found was that I could make pretty easily $10,000 a month, working just a couple of hours a day.” She has now leveraged the experience of launching an all-virtual estate-planning practice into a coaching program, 2-Hour Lifestyle Lawyer, to help other lawyers launch similar practices. Her new book, Lifestyle Lawyer Revolution: Live a Life You Love (Without Leaving the Law), is full of tips and advice for building a personalized practice to provide work-life balance for attorneys. “Now, what we found is that there's a lot of lawyers who are happy working a lot more than that and are happy earning a lot more, but the name of the business really comes from just this idea that you can still be a really great attorney without working 10 hours a day, and you can make a nice living without working 10 hours a day,” says Cowan. A key part of not working too many hours is to hire appropriate assistance, even as a solo just starting out, says Cowan. “What I see a lot of is lawyers that spend too much time in the weeds of executing and doing all these different things that an admin could be doing, and not spending enough time doing what the lawyer should be focusing on,” says Cowan. “So they're both working too much and not making enough money, which is the worst possible combination.” Cowan encourages estate attorneys to hold community workshops to help people understand the importance of wills and trusts. She says it's an excellent way to establish connections that can lead to further business. “The real reason that people hire us is because of the connection,” Cowan tells Rawles. “And I firmly believe this. People don't hire you because you're the best drafter in the world. They hire you because of the way that you make them feel. So use AI and technology behind the scenes to help you get your work done and deliver a really great client experience, but never forget that it's going to be that that makes them hire you.” In this episode, Cowan also discusses the benefits of value-based pricing versus the billable hour; attracting the client base you want to target; and how to deal with your biggest frenemy: technology.

Laura Cowan started her career in finance, earning a CPA and working at Ernst & Young and Goldman Sachs. When she decided to go to law school at 35, she knew that she wanted to launch a boutique firm with a practice area that complemented that financial background. Estate law seemed a good fit—but fate threw her a curve ball just as she launched her firm.“I had to turn my entire practice virtual overnight in 2020 in New York City because of COVID,” Cowan tells the ABA Journal's Lee Rawles in this episode of the Modern Law Library. “I moved to Rhode Island to shelter in place with my dad. During that couple of months that I was sheltering in place, I still had to get my law firm running. I had a business to run and bills to pay. So I made everything virtual, and I really streamlined everything. And what I found was that I could make pretty easily $10,000 a month, working just a couple of hours a day.” She has now leveraged the experience of launching an all-virtual estate-planning practice into a coaching program, 2-Hour Lifestyle Lawyer, to help other lawyers launch similar practices. Her new book, Lifestyle Lawyer Revolution: Live a Life You Love (Without Leaving the Law), is full of tips and advice for building a personalized practice to provide work-life balance for attorneys. “Now, what we found is that there's a lot of lawyers who are happy working a lot more than that and are happy earning a lot more, but the name of the business really comes from just this idea that you can still be a really great attorney without working 10 hours a day, and you can make a nice living without working 10 hours a day,” says Cowan. A key part of not working too many hours is to hire appropriate assistance, even as a solo just starting out, says Cowan. “What I see a lot of is lawyers that spend too much time in the weeds of executing and doing all these different things that an admin could be doing, and not spending enough time doing what the lawyer should be focusing on,” says Cowan. “So they're both working too much and not making enough money, which is the worst possible combination.” Cowan encourages estate attorneys to hold community workshops to help people understand the importance of wills and trusts. She says it's an excellent way to establish connections that can lead to further business. “The real reason that people hire us is because of the connection,” Cowan tells Rawles. “And I firmly believe this. People don't hire you because you're the best drafter in the world. They hire you because of the way that you make them feel. So use AI and technology behind the scenes to help you get your work done and deliver a really great client experience, but never forget that it's going to be that that makes them hire you.” In this episode, Cowan also discusses the benefits of value-based pricing versus the billable hour; attracting the client base you want to target; and how to deal with your biggest frenemy: technology.

Growing up, Durran Dunn, CPA, had drive and discipline, but he didn't have any aspiration of using those qualities to become a CPA. He didn't even know what a CPA was. Dunn, now a partner in Bennett Thrasher's Risk Advisory Services practice, based in greater Atlanta, overcame “whiplash” in the form of two moves – from Jamaica to New York, from New York to Mississippi – and now mentors students on the merits of the profession. In addition to sharing strategies for success, Dunn spoke about the high-profile-yet-anonymous role he had at a Major League Baseball stadium. He was a social media and YouTube sensation, even though his identity was hidden by a full bodysuit. What you'll learn from this episode: Dunn's introduction to the accounting profession. The cultural whiplash he experienced, twice, upon leaving his native Jamaica. The running role Dunn performed for about seven years at a Major League Baseball stadium. Dunn's path from not knowing what a CPA was to becoming a firm partner. Details of Dunn's service on the AICPA's Board of Examiners. Why he is passionate about volunteering and mentoring young accounting candidates. His emphasis on discipline – a message he shares with student groups.

What do experienced real estate investors do when deals don't pencil, the capital stack is shifting, and the data feels contradictory? In this episode, Jim Pfeifer and Paul Shannon are joined by real estate investor, CPA, and UCLA professor Eric Sussman to explore how sophisticated LPs should think about today's economic signals, capital markets, and sponsor behavior. Eric brings decades of experience across syndications, private equity, and academia to this conversation. He dives into how inflation data, rate policy, and lending trends are impacting both sponsors and investors and why understanding the real risk lies beyond cap rates and projected IRRs. The hosts and Eric discuss debt mismatches, how institutional players are positioning, and why trust and underwriting discipline matter more than ever. Plus, Eric shares his candid take on why some deals should fail and why that's ultimately healthy for the market. Key Takeaways How to interpret mixed signals in the real estate and macroeconomic data Why sponsors are struggling to refinance and recapitalize The impact of capital stack misalignment on passive investors Why some LPs aren't getting paid—even when the deal is “performing” What Eric looks for in a sponsor beyond the deck How institutional players are preparing for distress Why a wave of failed deals could actually benefit long-term investors Disclaimer The content of this podcast is for informational purposes only.

In this Tax Tuesday episode, Barley Bowler, CPA, and Eliot Thomas, Esq., tackle a diverse range of tax questions covering business structures, real estate investments, and tax optimization strategies. They demonstrate significant tax savings by comparing Schedule C sole proprietorship versus S Corporation structures, showing how proper business formation can save approximately $6,000 annually on just $50,000 of income. The hosts address healthcare deductions for S Corporation owners, explain the complexities of the self-employed limited partner exception, and dive deep into capital gains calculations and 1031 exchanges. They also cover tax lien investments, charitable boat donations, and probate avoidance strategies. With practical examples and real calculations, this episode provides actionable advice for entrepreneurs and real estate investors looking to minimize their tax burden while staying compliant with IRS regulations. Submit your tax question to taxtuesday@andersonadvisors.com Highlights/Topics: "What is the best way to reduce my income and my self-employment taxes? I'm single, a handyman/contractor with no dependents. I work solo, no employees." - Form S Corporation, pay reasonable wage, save on employment taxes. "I have an S-Corp LLC for my property management and business consulting activities. I'd like to provide my me and my spouse's healthcare through the LLC. What's the best way to go about this?" - S Corporation pays premiums, adds to W2, deducts on Schedule 1. "Self-employed limited partner exception. Please talk about this topic." - Very risky strategy; IRS cracking down; use S-Corporation instead. "How can one start a business, LLC or C-corp, and an ideal state of incorporation and hold those shares in a Roth IRA?" - Cannot own an operating business in Roth IRA; consider ROBS instead. "What types of taxes and tax reporting will be involved if I begin investing in tax liens?" - Interest income or property ownership; depending on the redemption outcome. "What are the rules for capital gains taxes on the sale of a house when the profits are used to pay cash on the next property?" - Sales price minus adjusted basis equals gain; cash use is irrelevant. "I am taking my primary home and turning it into a rental for one to two years. How do taxes work if you wanted to 1031 a portion of the gains?" - Take Section 121 exclusion first, then 1031 the remaining gain. "Under a 1031, taxpayers must select three possible real estate properties within 45 days. Can these selected properties be changed before the 180-day deadline?" - No changes allowed after 45 days; very strict timeline rules. "I have a boat to donate to charity. Is it true that I can make a $5,000 donation without having a certified appraiser?" - Yes, under $5,000 needs written acknowledgment, not certified appraisal. "What are the ways we can avoid probate?" - Living trust, joint ownership, beneficiary designations, lifetime gifting strategies Resources: Schedule Your Free Consultation https://andersonadvisors.com/strategy-session/?utm_source=capital-gains-rules-when-you-sell-a-home-and-buy-another&utm_medium=podcast Tax and Asset Protection Events https://andersonadvisors.com/real-estate-asset-protection-workshop-training/?utm_source=capital-gains-rules-when-you-sell-a-home-and-buy-another&utm_medium=podcast Anderson Advisors https://andersonadvisors.com/ Toby Mathis YouTube https://www.youtube.com/@TobyMathis Toby Mathis TikTok https://www.tiktok.com/@tobymathisesq Clint Coons YouTube https://www.youtube.com/@ClintCoons

When President Donald Trump signed multi-trillion-dollar reconciliation legislation July 4, it included provisions to expand the low-income housing tax credit (LIHTC), make permanent the opportunity zones (OZ) incentive and new markets tax credit (NMTC) and sharply pare back clean energy tax incentives. On this week's episode of Tax Credit Tuesday, Michael Novogradac, CPA, discusses the bill's provisions with Peter Lawrence, Novogradac's chief public policy officer; Jason Watkins, CPA; and Tony Grappone, CPA. They begin by looking at how the legislation was passed in Congress, then dive into the specific provisions for the LIHTC, OZs and NMTCs before taking a deeper dive into how clean energy tax credits were cut back. They then look at some cross-cutting provisions that will affect community development tax credits and what provisions failed to make it into the final reconciliation bill.
