Tax Tips for Young Professionals with Josh Bauerle
The single largest expense that you will have throughout your lifetime is… taxes.
It is more than your bar bill. More than your mortgage or rent. More than healthcare. (Hint: this is important stuff!)
The wealthy understand that taxes are their biggest expense, and they know how to (or have someone) reduce the amount of their taxes to the lowest amount possible.
Taxes, for most of us, are not an interesting subject. They’re something that we avoid at all costs – until a week before April 15th. But for Josh Bauerle, this is intriguing and interesting stuff. I was able to chat with Josh about some tips on taxes so that we can minimize our taxes and maximize the amount of money that we can keep.
Josh is a financial planner and owner of JDB Business Solutions – a firm focused on tax planning, tax preparation, and accounting services. He has a background in investing and personal finance, so we cover several great questions on money, wealth, investing, and of course, taxes.
Some things that you’ll learn in this video:
- What young professionals need to do right now to get headed on a path towards wealth.
- How you should handle your investments.
- Different ways to have tax-advantaged investments.
- General tax tips.
- And one of the secrets of the wealthy (hint #2: entrepreneurship).
Taxes are absolutely vital to a complete wealth plan. If you can better understand the basics of how taxes impact you, and learn to minimize them throughout your career, you will be substantially more wealthy than just discounting them.
Path Forward:
- Connect with Josh here.
- Implement all that Josh shares to save on taxes and build massive wealth!
Career Happiness with Bert Purdy [Video]
Only 13% of people enjoy going to work…
13%!
That is not acceptable…
Bert Purdy, of IntentionalEmployee.com is one of those few people in the 13%. He is a CPA, father, constant learner, and the host of a website where he shares his experiences and insights with the goal of helping other people find the same amount of happiness and success that he has.
To help us learn more about how you can find more pleasure in your career, I had a chat with Bert about:
- His definition of wealth.
- How to succeed in the workplace.
- Why the ability to communicate is paramount.
- Why you have to ask questions.
- The difference between money and passion as a driver for career happiness, and which you should focus on.
- How to make more money and get a promotion in your career.
- Why you should act as if you’re an entrepreneur, even if you’re not.
- And much, much more!
Book Recommendations:
Connect With Bert:
I love that Bert doesn’t say just merely follow your passion. In your career, passion isn’t enough.
You have to also find something that you can be good at, and something that can make you money. We all enjoy things that we’re good at, right? And if you’re good at something, you can almost assuredly make money from it.
Action Steps:
- “Ask – what do I need to do to be promoted?” Show the interest that you want to be promoted, and prove that you have earned it.
- Read Bert’s (and my) favorite book, How to Win Friends & Influence People. It changed our careers.
- Raise your energy level and be more enjoyable to work with. Everyone else around you will do the same, and you’ll not only perform better, but you’ll enjoy it more.
- Check out Intentional Employee, and reach out to Bert.

Investing is scary. It is challenging…
If you don’t know what you’re doing.
However, if you do know what you’re doing, investing can make you extraordinarily wealthy.
Young professionals have such a big advantage with investing. You have time on your side. So, it is so important to learn the basics of investing and start NOW.
With time, you can utilize the power of compound interest. You’ve heard me quote Einstein before:
Compound interest is the most powerful force in the universe. – Albert Einstein
If you can start investing now, and learn how to consistently make profits, you will be in an amazing place financially.
To help you do this, I brought in an author of two dozen non-fiction books, Russell Wild. [Read more…]
