Growing up I was always intrigued with the Stock Market. During College and early in my CPA Career working with Stock Market Investors, I invested considerable time learning about the Stock Market. I have managed and continue to successfully manage my own Investments, my Retirement Accounts, and my kids’ education accounts. Over the years, with the gains from the Stock Market, I have purchased many items like ATVs, autos, motorcycles, home related items, kid’s related items like braces, college expenses, other expenses, etc. and other big-ticket items. Some CPAs / Tax Preparers do not really understand the Stock Market and/or corporate stock options or cannot actualize that knowledge. If you do not truly understand the Stock Market, managing that tax return is incredibly difficult. I took my Stock Market experience, applied to my CPA Career, and now I work with a lot of Stock Market Investors and Corporate Employees with Stock Options to translate that knowledge into a specialty area of tax preparation that is unparalleled.
