On today’s podcast I have my good friend Matt Bontrager on, who is my partner over at Truebooks. He has been with me the last three years helping me be more efficient in my taxes. We talk about what you can do this year in 2022 to make sure you are staying on track with your financial goals. It doesn’t happen by just thinking about them at the end of the year or when you file taxes in April. we also talk about what it was like for Matt when he was starting Truebooks with me and how it was his first endeavor as an entrepreneur, how it was keeping his faith with his job while having a kid. I think a lot of people can relate to his story being an entrepreneur but still providing for their family. I think you can get a lot of value from that! We also talk about time management an how you need to understand what you are actually worth! it is a really podcast!

Getting the tax company off the ground needs skilled professionals and the right team. Almost all of our employees are CPAs or sitting for the CPA exams. Matt is from Las Vegas and is a licensed CPA. He went to work with the Big Four to earn his stripes and has worked at a few smaller firms. He DMed me on Instagram when I was looking for a new accountant.
