In this episode of the Millionaire Mindcast, we have a remarkable guest, Tom Wheelright who talks about the practical and strategic ways to permanently reduce taxes, how tax influences behavior, the 7 areas where you can invest your money and pay less taxes, and how the rich and wealthy pay zero taxes, legally!
Tom Wheelwright is a CPA, entrepreneur, international educator, leading expert and published author on partnerships and corporation tax strategies, best-selling author of a book “Tax-Free Wealth”, a well-known platform speaker and a wealth education innovator, Rich Dad advisor, and Founder and CEO of WealthAbility (Tempe, Arizona). He has been featured in hundreds of media, including Forbes, The Huffington Post, Accounting Today, CFO Magazine, ABC News Radio and AZTV Morning News, along with writing columns for Entrepreneur Magazine and Inman News.
Tom has been working with Robert Kiyosaki as a CPA for 20 years. Thus, influenced him to be a big action-taker and doer. His goal in life is to make taxes easy and understandable. He believes that once you change your mind, you can change your life, but if you can’t, you are stuck with what you’ve got!
