They Don't Teach This in Law School

Darren Wurz, founder of Lawyer Millionaire and financial advisor, helps law firm owners tackle their often neglected financial planning. He discusses the common pitfalls of lawyers not learning personal finance in school and highlights the importance of separating personal and business finances. Darren emphasizes the need for liquidity through emergency funds and automated savings, as well as strategies for effective cash flow management. He also warns against underinvesting in growth and provides end-of-year tax strategies to maximize profits.
