I went on a Podcast!

🎙️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 July 13th 🚀 Is AI eating my lunch or not? For the past few years the same people that brought you, "Truck Drivers need to learn to code", have started beating a new drum: "White-collar wageys needed to head to the breadlines", because the Silicon Valley priesthood believe that they are headed for the same fate as the horse & buggy.

It was one of the most hyped meme-stock IPOs ever! The stock was supposed to start at $135 a share, but it opened at $150. And this sucker went all the way up to a high of $225.64 within a week. Two trillion dollar market cap, roughly the GDP of Italy. Until it wasn't 😠. Unfortunately for Retail the stock pulled an Icarus🪽. It flew too close...

Romeo Razi, CPA June 7th 🤖AI, AI, AI, everywhere! 🧠 AI is everywhere, I know because I myself have fallen victim to the Nouveau-Développeur syndrome, a.k.a. Vibe Coding (more on that later). And I'm not the only one. Wall Street aficionados keep asking, "if your company isn't leading with AI, do you even have a company?" 🎰 To me, this whole AI-thing is reminiscent of the late 90s dot com boom-and-bust, and all the big AI companies are all going for the IPO-jugular. Anthropic (who created the...
