Just Press Play
If you have ever turned on the TV and saw the infomercial for the INSANITY workout, you would know that it is a 30-minute, high intensity workout that basically turns you into a big ball of sweat, rolling on the floor gasping for breath. When I decided to take the INSANITY plunge, I ordered the […]
Minimizing Taxes
Throughout history taxes have been necessary to pay for public services and needs. As the civilization grows, so does government, and this requires more revenue to pay for the expenses of the Treasury. Legislation is passed and new financial commitments are created on a continuous basis, creating a limitless demand on the resources of the […]
Skyrocket Your Income
The topic of income and making more money seems to be at the top of everyone’s agenda. When I consult with practice owners, making enough money is the #1 priority for most of them and as well it should be. After all, the amount of income you create is going to allow you to survive […]
Show Me The Money!
I think everyone knows that famous scene from the movie Jerry Maguire. It is a great example of the sheer desperation people can experience when it comes to the subject of making income.

Don’t Let the Tax-Tail Wag the Dog
I have a confession. Taxes are not my favorite subject. The tax code is a complex labyrinth of opinions and verbiage which would take a lifetime of research to try and clarify. Unfortunately, in working with over 200 practice owners I can say that a vast majority of your financial complaints are due to some […]
Will That Be Cash or Charge?

Where’s the Beef?
Remember that ad from Wendy’s? It made us laugh, but it also made us question the quality of the burgers we were consuming at the time. Wendy’s focused on the quality of their product and challenged the burger industry to step up or lose consumer confidence. Brilliant. Should financial planning be any different? When you […]
Preserve Your Reserves
I do like simple things. There is no truer test of a genius then someone who can take something that is seemingly very complex and reduce it down to a simplicity. One of the reasons I admire private practice health care professionals is their ability to take a complex case with a patient, apply their […]
