I cooked some killed Portuguese chicken for dinner. Karena gave it a 9 of 10... I made enough for tomorrows Portuguese salad.

I rode 240 miles on my Peloton this month... Great for me during tax season. I am impressed with myself...

Not every return is straightforward, and that’s okay. In @fortwaynecpa.bsky.social's Mastermind, he shared how one new CPA reached out for help reviewing tough returns…and kept coming back. Sometimes, the best move is asking someone who’s been there. #TaxSky #TaxBS #AccountingCommunity

Thinking about starting a firm? The work is out there—but not all of it is worth taking. In @fortwaynecpa.bsky.social’s New Firm Group, we broke down how to find quality clients, avoid the bad ones, and price right. Because just being busy isn’t the goal, being profitable is. #TaxSky

I put 11 returns out the door yesterday and isolated all day. Unfortunately I need to average 6 a day to be done on April 12th at end of day. I have a feeling I am working April 13th... #TaxBS #TaxSky

Rode Peloton for 30 minutes before work today and was my personal best. Burned 302 calories and rode 8.92 miles. I have ridden 87 of 89 days since bike activated... I had to take two days off due to one of my knees... 11 returns out the door yesterday.

TCR co-founder @fortwaynecpa.bsky.social (also lovingly known as Boomer Mike if you’re on #TaxTwitter) built a firm, scaled it, and now spends his time helping tax pros get their growth strategy right. 500+ client inquiries a year? Yeah, he’s got the formula. Say hey to Mike! 👋

Client: “I’m not filing this year, the IRS is disappearing.” Us: That’s… not how this works. @fortwaynecpa.bsky.social spoke to the @freep.com about the misinformation tax pros are hearing this season. #TaxSky, anyone want to share the wildest excuse they've heard so far?

Tax season is stressful enough—but figuring things out alone? 💆🏻 Financial Cents featured @fortwaynecpa.bsky.social & TCR as a space where accounting pros ask questions, get help fast, and share those “oh wow, I’m not the only one?” moments. Because we all need a sounding board sometimes.

63rd day in a row riding our Pelotons. Karena (my wife) and I are partners at a CPA firm so doing this is impressive for us... I did a 30 minute ride with Denis Morton today.

My goodness things are just so wild over on X... Arguing with another tax pro about whether an individual who is a CPA and had 5 or 6 years private/public accounting experience and just switched over to work for the IRS is a "Traitor." My goodness... They are NOT a traitor.

It turns out that IRS can’t operate without some of its employees. Remember those deferred resignation offers? Some IRS workers have now been told they may not qualify until after tax season is over. And if they've already accepted? They have to come back. www.forbes.com/sites/kellyp...

I am sorry, Kristi Noem is out of control. Anyone who thinks it is a good idea to retask IRS agents and use them to "apprehend and remove" undocumented immigrants has a few screws loose. Most IRS agents are accountants with no law enforcement training. Almost 98%... Good grief...
