“’Genuine Expert’ is the phrase that pops into my mind when I think about John.”

“’Genuine Expert’ is the phrase that pops into my mind when I think about John. I have known John for many years both personally and professionally and consider him one the best partners that I’ve had the pleasure of working with. During my career I’ve rarely came across a real professional with his integrity and principles. John has earned my highest recommendation!”

Unemployment Tax Law Changes

Unemployment Taxability Changes

The American Rescue Plan signed March 11, 2021 allows each U.S. Taxpayer (does not apply to non-residents) to exclude in 2020 up to 10,200 of Unemployment from their taxable income as long as your Adjusted Gross Income is less than $150K.

“If you have already filed your 2020 Form 1040 or 1040-SR, there is no need to file an amended return (Form 1040-X) to figure the amount of unemployment compensation to exclude. The IRS will refigure your taxes using the excluded unemployment compensation amount and adjust your account accordingly. The IRS will send any refund amount directly to you.”  — IRS Website

“It is VERY difficult to do one thing well.” These are words spoken to me several years ago that I will never forget. Complexity in business management for America’s entrepreneurs continues to become a way of life for today’s business owners. Working with a Virtual CFO will do much to help guide you through costly trial runs at success and help guide you ever closer to profit maximization and long-term success.

Success IS…..

Success is something earned not granted. It is the end result of a day worked and lived minute by minute and is measurable at the end rather than at the beginning of a journey.

Success is a lifestyle and not an achievement as you do not achieve success but rather become through hard work, diligence and effort.

Success is the difference between being “done” and done “well.”  I have seen way too many examples in life of people who stopped working or were finished but yet did not complete a certain task to the best of their ability.

Success only comes when one has done their best! 

Success is not being awesome by others standards but buy one continuing to put forth their VERY best in EVERY Circumstance.
