Buying a tax practce kind of excited.

Post by Leroy »

The last couple of years found me in private practice hoping for the best. Took on other gigs to support my habit.

A month ago, out of the blue an unsolicited chance came to buy a thriving practice. It is actually happenening. Soon I will be a job creator!

Congrats Leroy. And best of luck.
No doubt your professionalism and commitment to their confidentiality (hence your document shredder) will allow your practice to thrive.

I have never had the gumption, it's a major commitment to be peoples' tax guy. I took a call about a potential client today, on my day off, and must admit I have mixed feelings about whether I want to deal with it. I'm weird that way - I know this is my profession, I need income,..or maybe a comet will hit me and change everything.

What can I say, I prefer to be the mercenary tax guy for someone else. Do the work and get out.
