Podcasts about File

Did you hear about the guy who tried to pay his taxes with a smile? Unfortunately for him, the IRS still prefers cash.All jokes aside, failing to file your taxes for several years is no small matter—but it's not the end of the road, either. Kevin Cross joins us today with practical steps to help you get back on track.Kevin Cross is a Certified Public Accountant (CPA) who has headed CPA firms in Florida and now Georgia. He has studied the tax code extensively and specializes in representing taxpayers before the Internal Revenue Service (IRS).Start With the Present, Not the PastThe further you fall behind, the more difficult it is to catch up. But rather than beginning with the year you first missed, he recommends filing your most recent return first—say, 2024—and working backward as needed. This shows the IRS that you're attempting to come into compliance, not ignoring your obligations.Falling behind on taxes is more common than most people think. Life events like divorce, disability, job loss, or even the rise of gig work can trigger tax complications. For example, many gig workers receive a 1099 for the first time, try to file using online software, and are shocked to discover they owe thousands. Rather than seek help, they freeze—and the following year's return also goes unfiled.Of course, COVID didn't help as many people have been struggling since then to get back on track.Do You Always Have to File?A common misunderstanding is that you must always file. If you're not going to owe anything, you don't have to file. That includes many senior citizens who live solely on Social Security.However, if you're due a refund, you have up to three years to file and claim it. Miss that window, and the refund is forfeited.Importantly, there's a difference between not filing and not paying. Sometimes you don't know what you owe—or if you owe—until you file.Even if you don't owe taxes on the sale of a primary residence, for example, the IRS won't know that unless you file. If you don't, you might receive a letter saying you owe thousands in capital gains tax—money you could've avoided paying.How to Begin the ProcessIf you're unsure how many years you've missed, a good first step is to request a Wage and Income Transcript from the IRS. This document shows all your reported income—W-2s, 1099s, Social Security, retirement distributions, and more. You can request it through the IRS website by searching for “IRS wage and income transcript.”Even with transcripts in hand, deciphering them can be complicated. That's why we strongly recommend seeking help from a CPA or tax professional familiar with IRS representation. You may not know what to do with what you find. You can find a Certified Kingdom Advisor (CKA) in your area who specializes in tax planning and preparation by going to FaithFi.com and clicking “Find a Professional”. Also, it's helpful to know that the IRS's own handbook, the Internal Revenue Manual, usually requires only the last six years of returns to be filed. That's a helpful limit for those unsure where to begin.The IRS Will Work With YouDon't let fear keep you stuck. The IRS can work with you. Options include payment plans or even an offer in compromise, which may reduce your total tax liability.Filing late taxes doesn't have to be terrifying. With the right help and a step-by-step plan, you can get back on track—and even experience peace of mind. The IRS just wants to see you trying. Start with today, and take it one step at a time.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:I have a TIAA retirement account from my husband's time as an adjunct professor at a local community college. It's a small amount. As I'm 76, I'm required to set aside a certain amount each year. I would like to give this to my son now so that those amounts can stay in the account and start accruing interest. Can I do that?We have a credit card balance of $15,000 with an interest rate of 11%. We try to pay $2,000 a month, but the balance keeps increasing. Part of the reason is that our 29-year-old daughter, who lives and works in London, has a card on our account. We initially gave her the card for emergencies and plane tickets home, but she's using it for other expenses, such as occasional Ubers and travel. We want to pay off this card, but we're making no progress.

Greg Bishop shares some of the arguments Illinois Statehouse Republicans are leveling in a new lawsuit challenging alleged violations of the state Constitution's three readings rule.

The similarities between Ukraine's attack on Russian bombers and the Israeli attack on Iran's nuclear sites have been noted. But the parallels don't stop there. The U.S. is involved in both conflicts and the script for each is flexible on a daily basis. The influence upon each is Donald J Trump. Geopolitical authority George Friedman opines on both wars, employing the theory of geopolitical cycles as explained in his book “The Storm Before the Calm”.

Mastering Book Cover Design for Amazon & Kindle: A Practical Guide. In the crowded world of self-publishing, your book cover is more than just a pretty picture—it's your first impression, your marketing powerhouse, and the visual hook that can make or break a sale. Whether you're publishing a paperback on Amazon or a Kindle eBook, designing an effective cover is essential. Here's how to make sure yours stands out in the crowded Amazon marketplace. Why Your Book Cover Matters You've heard the saying, “Don't judge a book by its cover,” but let's be honest: readers absolutely do. On Amazon and Kindle, your cover shows up as a thumbnail alongside hundreds of others. A compelling design can make readers stop scrolling and click—while a dull or unprofessional one may get overlooked entirely. Key Differences: Kindle eBook vs. Paperback Cover Before you begin designing, understand the format you're creating for:Kindle eBooks: Require only a front cover. It should be optimized for digital screens and look good at small sizes (thumbnail view).Paperback Books (KDP Print): Require a full cover including front, back, and spine. You'll need to factor in the trim size, page count, and bleed areas.Amazon provides a Cover Calculator & Template Generator for paperbacks:https://kdp.amazon.com/cover-calculator Design Specs for Amazon & Kindle Covers Kindle eBook Cover Requirements:Dimensions: Ideal ratio is 1.6:1 (e.g., 1600 x 2560 pixels).Minimum size: 1000 pixels on the shortest side.Maximum file size: 50MB.File type: JPEG or TIFF.Color: RGB only.Paperback Cover Requirements (KDP Print):File type: PDF for print.Resolution: 300 DPI.Color: CMYK.Bleed: Typically 0.125" on all sides.Spine width: Depends on page count and paper type.Design Principles That Sell 1. Know Your Genre Each genre has visual cues. Romance uses soft, emotional imagery. Thrillers often use dark tones and bold fonts. Non-fiction covers tend to be cleaner and typography-driven. Look at the top 10 books in your category for inspiration. 2. Typography is CrucialUse no more than two fonts.Title should be readable at thumbnail size.Avoid script or decorative fonts unless genre-appropriate.Author name can be smaller but still legible.3. High-Quality Images Avoid using pixelated or stocky-looking images. Invest in high-resolution assets or create custom illustrations/photos. Sites like Unsplash (free) or Shutterstock (premium) are great sources. 4. Balance and Hierarchy Design with clear visual hierarchy:Title firstSubtitle second (if applicable)Author name thirdLeave breathing space. Don't overcrowd. 5. Thumbnail Test Shrink your design to 100 x 160 px. Can you still read the title? Is it still eye-catching? This is how it will appear in Amazon search results. Tools for Designing Book Covers For DIY Authors:Canva (Free & Pro): User-friendly with KDP templates.BookBrush: Designed for authors, with genre templates.Adobe Express: Quick designs with good typography options.For Professional Designers:Adobe Photoshop or InDesign: Full control for advanced design and print-ready files.Affinity Publisher: A powerful InDesign alternative.Using Amazon KDP Cover Creator (Optional) If you're not comfortable with design tools, Amazon's built-in Cover Creator is simple and free. It has templates, font controls, and lets you preview in 3D. However, it's limited in customization, so it's best for basic layouts. Avoid These Common MistakesUsing low-res images or blurry graphicsCentering everything by defaultOveruse of effects like drop shadows or bevelsInconsistent visual tone with the genreMisaligned spine elements on paperbacksIgnoring bleed and trim linesPro Tip: Hire a Designer If You Can A professionally designed cover can significantly boost your credibility and sales. If you're serious about publishing, consider hiring a freelance designer from platforms like Reedsy, 99designs, or Upwork. Always provide your book's genre, blurb, tone, and any visual references you like. Final Thoughts Your book cover is a visual handshake with your reader. On Amazon and Kindle, it's your billboard, brand, and storefront rolled into one. Invest time and care into it. With the right tools, creative direction, and an understanding of what sells, you can design a cover that attracts, engages, and converts browsers into buyers.

After filing formal complaints against the doctors who violated my husband's patient rights, everything changed. In this episode, I share what happened next—how advocating for Gavin led to a new physician assistant, a new nurse, and finally, the right medications. It wasn't easy, but standing my ground shifted the entire course of his care. Gavin was still in the hospital, newly reliant on a feeding tube and being checked for pneumonia—but for the first time in a while, it felt like we could both exhale. Despite the fact that I was still in caregiving burnout and wildly overwhelmed, I loved being able to lean on hospital staff. This is a story about the power of speaking up, even when your voice shakes, and the turning point that gave us hope again. Join me as I share more insights from my husband's cancer journey, focusing on the importance of being a strong patient advocate. I'll discuss navigating the healthcare system and the necessity of caregiver support. This episode also underscores the significance of patient safety within local hospitals.

We took a minute. Summer break, slow mode, call it what you want. We're back. Still cruising at 33, but this one hits like it's cut at 45. Korbeat steps in with a mix that doesn't waste a second. Colombian-born, Brooklyn-based, and clearly not here to fill space. Sixty-three minutes of pulsing, precision-engineered techno that moves like a night train, no brakes, no letup. Opening track? Sciama's Intercede on OODA. It sets the tone, and the pressure just builds from there. This isn't some throwaway club hour but a lean, locked-in, and fully dialed mix. No fluff. No filler. Just groove and grit. Transitions snap like circuit breakers, clean, sudden, right on cue. Korbeat co-runs Bajo Constructo out of Armenia, Quindío in Colombia, and was a resident of Seis Records. Lately, he's been surfacing on compilations from QEONE and Aneelhi Rec, steadily staking ground in Brooklyn's underground. File under: fuel. For your run, your night, or anything that needs a jolt to the chest. https://soundcloud.com/krb_t https://www.instagram.com/krbt__ Write up by @gilleswasserman Follow us on social media: https://soundcloud.com/itsdelayed https://linktr.ee/delayed https://www.delayed.nyc https://www.facebook.com/itsdelayed https://www.instagram.com/_____delayed https://www.youtube.com/@_____delayed Contact us: info@delayed.nyc

In the case of Doe v. Combs (No. 1:24-cv-08054-MKV), the court denied the plaintiff's motion for reconsideration regarding her request to proceed under a pseudonym. The plaintiff, alleging sexual assault by Sean Combs, initially sought to maintain anonymity due to the sensitive nature of the case. However, the court emphasized the importance of transparency in judicial proceedings and found that the plaintiff's concerns did not outweigh the public's right to open access.The court acknowledged the plaintiff's fears of potential harm but determined that these concerns were speculative and unsupported by concrete evidence. It noted that many plaintiffs in similar cases proceed under their real names without incident. Consequently, the court upheld its original decision, requiring the plaintiff to refile the complaint using her legal name to ensure fairness and uphold the principles of open justice.(commercial at 8:18)to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:gov.uscourts.nysd.630450.22.0.pdf

AI is coming, and it may be coming for your job. Guest Dan Lear, vice president of partnerships at the digital case management company InfoTrack, shares how paralegal professionals can adapt and remain vital. Spoiler, you can't ignore the AI revolution, but you can learn, evolve, and deliver insights and human skills that AI simply can't match.  File, case, and data management has come a long way, from physically moving boxes of paper filings to electronic management, and Lear has done it all, from moving paper files to his current position legal tech. Along the way, Lear advanced from a file clerk position to a career as a paralegal professional, then earning his law degree. Now he's exploring and embracing AI capabilities. Having worked as a paralegal, Lear understands how vital the profession is to the practice of law, at times even “training” newly minted attorneys as they transition from learning the principles of the law to actually getting the job done.  As Lear explains, lifelong learning, networking, and building strong connections will become increasingly important moving forward, whether you're a newcomer to the field or an experienced veteran.  Mentioned in This Episode: “Behind the Curtain: A White-Collar Bloodbath,” Axios “Tech CEO Warns AI Will Eliminate Jobs.

September 2, 1959. Seattle, Washington. 62-year old Pearl Kongsle discovers a paper sack on the walkway outside her residence and when she bends over to pick it up, a bomb goes off and kills her. Even though a car containing three teenage boys is seen speeding away from the scene following the blast, investigators are unable to turn up any major leads or compelling suspects with a motive to harm Pearl. It turns out that months earlier, two relatives of Pearl's late husband died after a mysterious poisoning and there was another strange incident where sticks of dynamite were discovered on the property of Pearl's brother-in-law, but no link can be found between these events and Pearl's murder. On this week's episode of “The Trail Went Cold”, we explore the bizarre unsolved bombing death of Pearl Kongsle.

The Investigation Officer's File by Dallas Clark Amazon.com When Ricardo Jackson reported for duty with the Third Marine Division in Vietnam, his biggest fear was being shipped home in a coffin. It never occurred to him that he would be transferred, in handcuffs and leg irons, from Vietnam to the federal prison at Fort Leavenworth, Kansas to serve 20 years for the convictions of charges relating to the murder of a marine officer. After Woody White earned his commission as a second lieutenant in the Marines, he completed his training and reported to the Third Marine Division in Vietnam, to serve as a legal defense attorney, even though he had never tried a case. Woody White was the only thing standing between Ricardo Jackson and twenty years at the federal prison at Fort Leavenworth, and time was running out....

In the case of Doe v. Combs (No. 1:24-cv-08054-MKV), the plaintiff, Jane Doe, filed a Memorandum of Law supporting her motion for reconsideration of the court's decision denying her request to proceed under a pseudonym. She also sought permission to file a supporting declaration under seal. The plaintiff argued that the court had overlooked critical factors, including the highly sensitive nature of the allegations and the potential for significant harm if her identity were disclosed. She emphasized that revealing her identity could lead to severe emotional distress and possible retaliation, given the prominence of the defendant, Sean Combs.Additionally, the plaintiff contended that allowing her to proceed anonymously would not prejudice the defendants and would serve the public interest by encouraging victims of sexual assault to come forward without fear of exposure. The request to file the declaration under seal was made to protect the confidentiality of detailed personal information pertinent to her motion.(commercial at 7:07)to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:gov.uscourts.nysd.630450.21.0.pdf

Romanians are still navigating the difficult path of building democratic institutions and a culture of transparency. At the same time, widespread perceptions of corruption and cronyism have caused many Romanians to see little change from communist leadership.

She also summarises the country's relationship between Russia, Ukraine, Poland and the rest of Europe. And finally, we visit The Mailroom with Mrs Producer.

Unfortunately, trans-spatial anomalies still preclude any form of visual recording, necessitating detailed manual documentation of both appearance and activity.It is anticipated—indeed, all but guaranteed—that AGENT23 will once again forgo objective reporting in favor of whimsical editorialization.

‘Expediente DL’ vuelve como nunca lo habíais escuchado, y eso es mucho decir… Junto a Manuel Carballal en Pontevedra, nos embarcamos en el 'Anxos II', el velero del historiador Antonio Piñero, para charlar con él sobre asuntos de los que no suele hablar. Uno de los principales referentes a nivel mundial en cristianismo primitivo, filología neotestamentaria y exégesis bíblica nos concede su entrevista más íntima y personal para conversar sobre sus inicios, dudas, inquietudes, anécdotas e incluso amenazas recibidas, entre otras cuestiones. Vais a alucinar… Todo ello salpicado con polémicas reflexiones sobre el Nuevo Testamento, el Jesús histórico y el Jesucristo idílico, amen de otros temas relacionados con el cristianismo antiguo, aderezado con todo tipo de nociones marineras mientras navegamos unas 20 millas mar adentro la tarde del 7 de junio del presente 2025. ¿Hubo OVNIs en la Biblia? ¿Realizó Jesús milagros paranormales? ¿Tuvo hermanos, esposa e hijos? Una edición didáctica, diferente y divertida de la que esperamos no os perdáis la doble despedida, pues hubo visita sorpresa al final de nuestra travesía… Por último, si queréis colaborar con el programa, podéis hacerlo a través de una cuenta de PayPal que hemos creado para que, libremente, quien así lo crea conveniente, pueda contribuir agradeciendo el trabajo realizado para que este pueda seguir adelante.

This Day in Legal History: SEC EstablishedOn this day in legal history, June 6, 1934, the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) was established as part of the sweeping reforms of the New Deal. The SEC was created by the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 in response to the stock market crash of 1929 and the ensuing Great Depression, which exposed widespread fraud, manipulation, and lack of oversight in the financial markets. Its primary mission was, and remains, to protect investors; maintain fair, orderly, and efficient markets; and facilitate capital formation.President Franklin D. Roosevelt appointed Joseph P. Kennedy, a former stockbroker and businessman, as the SEC's first chairman. The choice was controversial—Kennedy had profited handsomely from some of the same speculative practices the SEC was meant to prevent—but Roosevelt believed that Kennedy's insider knowledge would make him an effective regulator.The SEC was empowered to regulate the securities industry, enforce federal securities laws, and oversee the nation's stock and options exchanges. Among its early duties were requiring public companies to file detailed financial disclosures, registering securities before public offering, and monitoring insider trading. The commission also played a key role in restoring investor confidence in U.S. capital markets during a time of deep financial mistrust.Over time, the SEC expanded its reach, responding to new financial products, trading technologies, and crises. From investigating corporate accounting scandals like Enron and WorldCom, to managing the regulatory fallout of the 2008 financial crisis, the SEC has remained a pivotal force in shaping American financial law. It continues to evolve, now addressing issues such as crypto asset regulation, ESG disclosures, and algorithmic trading.Speaking of the SEC, U.S. District Judge Reggie Walton dismissed a lawsuit challenging the SEC 2020 rule changes that made it more difficult for shareholders to submit proposals at corporate annual meetings. The rules, enacted late in President Trump's term, raised the ownership thresholds and lengthened holding periods required to file shareholder proposals. They also introduced stricter resubmission requirements for proposals previously rejected by shareholders.The plaintiffs, including the Interfaith Center on Corporate Responsibility, As You Sow, and shareholder advocate James McRitchie, argued the changes disproportionately harmed proposals on environmental, social, and governance (ESG) issues and reduced long-term shareholder value. They claimed the SEC failed to assess the benefits of such proposals before implementing the rules.Judge Walton rejected these claims, ruling that the SEC adequately justified the changes under its mandate to promote efficiency, competition, and capital formation. The SEC, which had defended the rules during both the Trump and Biden administrations, argued that the reforms ensured shareholder proposals had broader relevance and potential for meaningful corporate action. The 2020 vote on the rule changes split along party lines, with Republican commissioners in support. While the SEC declined to comment on the ruling, the plaintiffs expressed disappointment and affirmed their commitment to corporate engagement on environmental and social issues.SEC wins dismissal of lawsuit challenging tighter rules on shareholder proposals | ReutersOpenAI filed an appeal challenging a court order that requires it to indefinitely preserve ChatGPT output data in an ongoing copyright lawsuit brought by The New York Times. OpenAI argues the order conflicts with its user privacy commitments and sets a troubling precedent. The preservation directive was issued last month after The Times requested that all relevant log data be maintained and segregated.OpenAI CEO Sam Altman publicly criticized the order on social media, affirming the company's stance against actions it sees as compromising user privacy. The appeal, filed on June 3, asks U.S. District Judge Sidney Stein to vacate the preservation requirement.The lawsuit, filed in 2023, accuses OpenAI and Microsoft of using millions of Times articles without permission to train ChatGPT. In April, Judge Stein ruled that The Times had plausibly alleged that OpenAI and Microsoft may have encouraged users to reproduce copyrighted content. The ruling rejected parts of a motion to dismiss the case and allowed several of the Times' claims to move forward, citing multiple examples of ChatGPT generating material closely resembling Times articles.OpenAI appeals data preservation order in NYT copyright case | ReutersPresident Donald Trump's 2026 budget proposal includes a plan to eliminate the Legal Services Corporation (LSC), an independent agency that funds civil legal aid for low-income Americans. The proposal seeks $21 million for an "orderly closeout" of the organization, which had requested $2.1 billion to meet growing demand. The LSC supports 130 nonprofit legal aid programs that assist with issues such as evictions, disaster recovery, and access to public benefits.Critics warn that the move would devastate legal aid access for millions, particularly in rural areas and the South. In Louisiana, for example, there is just one legal aid lawyer for every 11,250 eligible residents. Legal aid leaders say they already turn away half of those seeking help due to budget constraints, and the proposed funding cut would further limit their reach.Organizations like Southeast Louisiana Legal Services and Legal Aid of North Carolina would lose 40–50% of their funding, jeopardizing services for communities still recovering from recent hurricanes. Legal Services NYC, the largest legal aid provider in the country, has implemented a hiring freeze in anticipation of possible cuts.The proposal revives a long-standing conservative goal. Past Republican efforts to dismantle the LSC date back to the Reagan era, and Trump made a similar attempt in 2018. The Heritage Foundation has accused the LSC of supporting controversial causes, but legal aid advocates argue the organization is vital to community stability and fairness in the justice system.Trump Plan to Ax Legal Aid a Conservative Aim That Targets PoorIn a piece I wrote for Forbes last week, I discuss how the IRS has quietly released the underlying codebase for its Direct File program on GitHub, marking a rare moment of transparency in government software. At the center of this release is something called the “Fact Graph,” a logic engine that models tax rules as interrelated facts rather than a linear checklist. Built using XML and Scala, the Fact Graph interprets ambiguous tax data, identifies contradictions or omissions, and suggests paths forward, all in a transparent, declarative format.What sets this apart is that, unlike proprietary tax software, Direct File's logic isn't hidden—it's open, reviewable, and potentially improvable by anyone. This move not only demystifies some of the inner workings of tax enforcement but also sets a precedent: if algorithms are mediating our legal obligations, we should be able to see and understand the rules they follow.The release is particularly striking in an era of eroding public trust in institutions and increasing reliance on automated decision-making. While Direct File itself remains limited in scope and its future uncertain, the open-sourcing of its logic engine may have laid the groundwork for broader change. Other agencies—from state tax departments to those experimenting with AI-driven policy enforcement—could adopt similar transparency, allowing the public to engage with and even help refine the systems that govern them.Peeking Behind The Code—IRS Just Open-Sourced Direct FileThis week's closing theme is by Robert Schumann and comes courtesy of Christopher Zbinden. This week's closing theme is Robert Schumann's Toccata in C major, Op. 7, a dazzling showcase of Romantic-era pianism and one of the most technically demanding works in the standard repertoire. Composed in 1830 and revised in 1833, the piece earned a reputation early on as a pianist's Everest—Franz Liszt himself dubbed it “the hardest piece ever written.” Clocking in at just over five minutes when played at tempo, it's a relentless whirlwind of perpetual motion, requiring both physical stamina and interpretive precision.The toccata form, traditionally a virtuosic keyboard piece emphasizing dexterity, becomes in Schumann's hands something more cerebral. Beneath its bravura surface lies a structure built on two contrasting themes, developed with intricate counterpoint and rhythmic displacement. The left hand must execute rapid repeated notes and wide leaps with precision, while the right weaves through syncopated figures and chromatic runs, creating a dense musical texture.Schumann dedicated the piece to his friend Ludwig Schuncke, who had recently died at the age of 23. That personal connection adds an emotional layer to a work that might otherwise be heard as pure technical spectacle. Unlike many showpieces of the era, Schumann's Toccata isn't just difficult for difficulty's sake—it's an expression of obsession, energy, and youthful ambition.For a composer better known for lyrical piano miniatures, the Toccata is an early signal of the depth and range Schumann would explore in later works. As this week closes, it offers a fitting sendoff: intricate, driven, and a little manic—in the best Romantic sense of the word.Without further ado, Robert Schumann's Toccata in C major, Op. 7 – enjoy!

Sherry Peel Jackson is a retired IRS agent, CPA, and Certified Fraud Examiner who now dedicates her work to helping everyday people understand how to reduce their taxes, protect their income, and build wealth. With over 35 years of experience and a mission to educate the middle class, Sherry teaches strategies used by the wealthy to keep more of what they earn—including how to legally avoid taxes, structure businesses wisely, and protect assets.     Make sure to download our free guide, 7 Questions Every Passive Investor Should Ask, here. Key Takeaways Sherry exposes the disparity in how the IRS treats mom-and-pop businesses versus large corporations. Starting a home-based business opens up powerful tax deductions not available to W-2 employees. Keeping thorough records, especially receipts, is essential for audit protection—credit card statements alone won't cut it. The KPG system (Keep, Protect, Grow) is Sherry's core framework for achieving financial independence. Protecting assets through proper legal structuring, including out-of-state LLCs and foundations, shields wealth from lawsuits and unnecessary taxes.     Topics From IRS Agent to Advocate Worked for the IRS from 1988–1995 before launching her own CPA firm. Witnessed firsthand how small businesses were targeted while corporations often negotiated huge tax reductions. Left the IRS to empower middle-class earners with insider knowledge the wealthy use every day. Home-Based Businesses and Tax Deductions Employees are severely limited in tax deductions—no mileage, phone, or home internet write-offs. By launching a simple home-based business, individuals gain access to numerous write-offs. Sherry encourages clients to start a business they enjoy to unlock these tax benefits without burnout. Recordkeeping and Audit Preparedness Debit and credit card statements are NOT valid proof during audits—receipts are required. Recommends either scanning receipts into apps or making photocopies to preserve them. Supports clients during IRS audits and often helps them overturn excessive assessments. The KPG System: Keep, Protect, Grow Keep: Slash unnecessary expenses, eliminate debt, and live frugally while building income. Protect: Use legal structures (e.g., LLCs in Wyoming, NM) to shield assets and ensure anonymity. Grow: Reinvest profits into physical gold/silver and real estate—not depreciating assets like TVs or cars. Advanced Wealth Strategies Uses infinite banking policies to store wealth and acquire real estate tax-efficiently. Leverages the Augusta Rule—renting her home to her business for up to 14 days tax-free. Teaches the use of trusts and foundations to legally reduce taxes and protect generational wealth.

“Got vCon? You will.” — Jeff Pulver In this special edition of the Technology Reseller News podcast, Publisher Doug Green sits down with Jeff Pulver, creator of the Pulver vCon Report and longtime voice of innovation in telecom, to explore what Pulver calls the "sleeper technology of 2025": the vCon. A vCon, or virtualized conversation, is more than just a recording—it's a standardized, structured file format that captures the full depth of business conversations across any channel, whether voice, video, email, or chat. Pulver describes it as “robot food for AI,” the foundational data businesses need to fuel next-generation automation, analytics, and compliance tools. “The moment the call ends is when the real magic starts,” says Pulver. With vCon, conversations become searchable, analyzable, and actionable. From real-time sales dashboards to AI-driven support insights, Pulver argues that vCon files are unlocking "organizational memory" in ways businesses have never seen. Pulver draws parallels between vCon today and SIP (Session Initiation Protocol) in its early days—both were initially niche innovations that became foundational. He also highlights the growing vCon ecosystem, noting that over 30 companies are already building with the standard, and invites others to get ahead by building their “vCon strategy.” Upcoming Events: Fall ‘25 VON: Evolution, September 15 in Washington, D.C. Fall ‘25 vCon Conference, October 21-23 in Dallas, TX Throughout the episode, Pulver emphasizes that vCon technology isn't about hypothetical futures—it's happening now, with real tools like conservers (e.g., conserver.io) and protocols like SCITT (Supply Chain Integrity, Transparency, and Trust) shaping a trustworthy foundation for AI-powered enterprises. Whether you're in telecom, compliance, support, or just managing a messy digital life, Pulver's message is clear: “What's your vCon strategy?” Subscribe to Jeff's thoughts at thejeffpulver.substack.com Stay tuned to Technology Reseller News for more on the vCon revolution.
