Not many people enjoy paying a big tax bill on 4/15 But it stings much less when you: 1. Know it is coming 2. Mitigate it as best as possible 3. Avoid underpayment penalties 4. Have cash set aside ready to go

Right now, the wealth management industry is leaving advisors behind. That’s why we’re building @Compound: a platform that makes advisors’ work easier, and redefines advisor-client relationships in the process. In our Town Hall, my co-founder @christian_haigh and I, joined by Tim Hamilton, will share more about where we’ve been and where we’re headed. Specifically, how we set out to: → Overhaul old, paper-based systems → Build a single source of truth for tracking personal finances and your entire net worth → Give power to advisors Those are the stepping stones to reimagining the entire industry. And we want advisors to be a part of that change. That’s why we don’t just help our advisors give personalized, impactful advice. We also give them a direct stake in our collective success. Compound is built for them, and we couldn’t grow without them. This is just the start. Tune in tomorrow (Jan. 23), where we’ll talk about all of the above, plus some big news we’re excited to share, and an AMA session with me and Christian: compoundplanning.com/events/…

I talk a lot about stock options & equity on here -- I'm sure it gets repetitive for some... ...but I'm passionate about spreading knowledge in this area There are many complexities (and few teachers) Here's a graphic I made yesterday about how NSOs work:

Startup job offer red flags 🚩 🚩🚩 - Won't tell you the % of the company you're being offered - Don't share runway or won't show you how it's calculated - Try to sell you on the equity potential like it's a sure thing - Don't want to share liquidation preferences

Drafting (and executing) a Rev Trust is not enough You actually have to FUND it This includes re-titling things like real estate, bank accounts, brokerage assets, and company equity Every state is different -- so don't just assume that everything belongs in the trust
