Julien and Kiersten celebrate the beginning of financial literacy month (and tax season) by diving into tax jargon. There are so many things to complain about regarding taxes, but they do pay for community essentials like roads, schools, defense, social services, and more. The existing tax system was set up to incentivize charitable giving and homeownership. However, in the 1950s, governing bodies introduced tax write-offs for businesses to reduce their tax liability, and it’s only gotten more complicated.

Kiersten asks, “Is the juice worth the squeeze?” when it comes to learning tax codes to save money and lands on “yes,” - but with exceptions. Learning taxes is the key to unlocking wealth. You don’t want to leave deductions on the table just because you don’t know how to identify them. As Julien wryly observes, “Rich people, if there’s one thing they know, it’s taxes.” Pull back the veil of secrecy around taxes with Julien and Kiersten this week so you can get the most out of your yearly donation to the public coffers.
