White Paper (Tax & Personal Finance)
Tax and Personal Finance
Introduction
In order for a person to reach their full potential, I believe they must have the willingness to try new things that are uncomfortable. The process can be scary, but every new thing we learn makes our world a little more manageable.
When I decided to become a Certified Public Accountant, I was in my mid twenties folding t-shirts at a local screen printing company. I asked the CPA in the office next door what I needed to do in order to “do what he does.” He told me, “go to college and pass the 14 hour CPA exam.” Impossible, right? I wasn’t familiar with admissions, GPA, grad school, financial aid, state boards or much else. I was a young guy in recovery that wanted my life to have meaning. The next day I talked to someone in Admissions, connected with a guidance counselor, and enrolled in college. The rest is history.
