What very much used to be one-stop-shop operations (professions) now involve a number of additional add-on areas that you may or may not need.

Basic financial skills are essential to successful adulthood, and many of you have expressed a desire or concern about training your young adult children to be financially literate.
I am delighted to inform you of a web-based product that does this in a unique, enjoyable, and effective way. Although it’s game-based, the content is anything but trivial. Try the MoneyU demo - or better yet, have your kids try it.
Many of you may have noticed that 2006 was a rather remarkable year for charitable giving. Bill Gates and Warren Buffet not only made headlines and records with their largess, but they also initiated a trend in what is sometimes called the "New Philanthropy." Giving isn't new of course, but how we give has changed somewhat remarkably.
As a CPA, I see many mistakes, miscalculations, and missed opportunities made when donating to charity. Therefore, I have expanded DonParis.com to include a section specifically for charitable giving. It now features an article I've written on just this topic, and there will be more soon. So please take a look by clicking here, and don't hesitate to call or e-mail me if you have any specific questions about giving, charities, structuring your gift, or the tax consequences. Thank you." |
