The Wisdom to Know the Difference is about unique professional CPA encounters with Grand Jury Investigations, Criminal IRS Audits, the Legal System, and other experiences of mine while I was in the CPA profession. Normally, accountants are traditionally looked at as a bit dull. I believe this book will shed a different light on the profession. The book is true; however, it is a cynical synopsis of actual experiences. Many of those experiences are corrupted by “winning over the truth”; whether in criminal matters, IRS audits or because of the existing the legal system. I have set forth different examples and experiences where the system we live in just does not work and how I was able to overcome those obstacles in each instance, including examples of poor oversight in our own profession. Simply stated, I made more money than any other CPA in public practice in the State of Washington. In that process, I was able to help build a successful CPA firm, a great client base, a reputation of testifying professionally from Alaska to Florida, the past President and Chair of the Washington Society of CPAs, a Council Member of the American Institute of CPAs, Past President of other local service clubs and activities, Board Member to everything from Colleges to Not for Profits, and regular donor to needy local causes among other services.
