Name your roleOur mission: Build a more equitable financial world
The world today:
“The hardest thing in the world to understand is income taxes” - Albert Einstein
In today’s world, Americans at lower income levels are disproportionately hurt by a complicated tax system and current product offerings. High-net-worth individuals have teams of accountants and lawyers to help them navigate and avoid taxes. In the same country, 3/4 of Americans don’t have access to any financial or tax advice and are forced to wade into the complex world of taxes with inadequate support.
The advice given to most Americans (who can’t afford to hire a CPA or pay for high-end tax products) is, at best, lacking and, at worst, predatory. We live in a country where access to potentially life-changing tax advice is limited based on your income. It’s not right.
Who are we?
The taxpayers we serve represent a diverse slice of the USA - and so do we. If you share an excitement for improving the financial well-being of all Americans, you’ll be right at home at Column Tax!
