🎙️I went on my first podcast

Your boy made it onto the airwaves

Fame level: podcast-famous (mom’s super proud).

Just dropped an episode with David Yu on the Jet Setting Wealth Advisory Podcast. David’s a wealth advisor who helps aviation pros keep more of their altitude (financially speaking). His crew invited me on to talk shop, and we went deep.

We covered:
✈️ IRS audit triggers (what actually gets you flagged)
🕵️‍♂️ Life inside the IRS
📊 What business owners mess up most
🧠 And why the OBBBA is great, and also not great, at the same time.

If you’ve ever wanted to hear me rant about taxes into a microphone, your time has come.

Romeo Razi, CPA Nov 23rd 📛Unemployment just hit a four-year high So much for the "soft landing" fantasy that J Powell kept whispering (honestly, I almost feel bad for him... almost). To be fair, I can't say I'm shocked. J Powell has been moonlighting as a magician channeling his inner "David Copperfield': sleight of hand over here, missing jobs report over there. Here's what happened in plain English: the BOL (Bureau of Labor Statistics) says that unemployment is 4.4%. Sounds mild, until you...

Romeo Razi, CPA Nov 9th 🏚️First it was 40-year mortgages. Now it's 50. Nothing screams, "American Dream" like 6-decades of debt (just ask college students). The President has a solution to getting young people to buy homes. Stretch the mortgage until you qualify for Social Security. Our leader: Mr. Bold Strategies has come up with a plan that is like rearranging the chairs on the Titanic, but with shabby terms and higher closing costs. Back in 2006, they floated 40-year loans right before the...
