KC Chohan. How to Do Your Taxes The RIGHT Way. Episode 585 with The Real Brad Lea (TRBL)
If you could imagine a kid growing up in the countryside of England, lots of beautiful green fields and rolling hills running around playing in the mud with his dog, that was basically Kc as a kid. His hopeless curiosity and desire to grow led him to be interested in business, specifically big business with big problems to solve. He loves solving problems and pushing what people consider the limits.Kc ended up getting a degree in business and finance thinking that those two combined would be a great skill set to understand and thrive in business, not anticipating or thinking he would start an accounting firm. He then went in the direction of being a boring accountant and working on bookkeeping – which makes most people have a visceral cringe when mentioned, “Oh dam, that sounds terribly boring.” It was a great opportunity, not something he could say no to especially as he had the job before he had even finished university. It was very difficult to say no to an immediate paycheck but…Becoming an accounting as you can probably imagine was kind of miserable doing the same thing day in day out because HE REALIZED that he had so much more to offer than just hiding in the books. It became apparent to Kc that this was not aligned with his unique disposition and personality and one thing he believes in strongly is that to be successful, people need to live in a place they thrive. In this episode, Brad and KC discuss maximizing your tax reductions and getting your proper return. Bombs: - Do your reading. Put in the effort. Upgrade your tax team. You will see the rewards.
