Don’t buy a car from Carvana.
They will collect your payments but will not send them to the lien holder.
After a few months of “missed” payments the lien holder will repo your car without warning.
This happened to my son in San Antonio.
This is theft.

I’m so sorry @jlwcpa2.bsky.social 💔
I’m so sorry. Was the coffee decent?
Making progress on a massive project!
My frozen shoulder is maybe thawing a bit!
My husband went to Trader Joe’s and bought wine and chocolate!
Our geriatric kitty (20 yrs and 9 months) is still with us!
When you find someone with a gift for data analysis, instead of saying "'Oh, well, that's really great that you can do that, but we don't really do that here.' Instead, change it to, 'What can we do with your particular skill set?'”
One idea he had for helping with the talent shortage was "finding the people within their firm that they're not only just worth keeping, but those people that are probably able to do more than just what they're positioned for."
Episode 2 of The Disruptors was with Tyler Anderson, CPA, who, along with the team at AccountABILITY Plus, is working to change audit from mindless ticking and tying to adding value to make client's businesses better.

"Technology shouldn't be used as a shield. It should be for getting through all the stuff faster, so that we can sit down and work on what is it that's bringing value to our clients."
"You've got to build the processes around the idea that you are going to scale."
One of the biggest problems in accounting right now is that we aren't charging either enough or for the things that we're doing at all.
"When your workflows are built around specific service offerings, you can get efficiency. You can find the right people. You can hire outside the box."
As I near the release of the 100th episode of my @cpatrendlines.bsky.social podcast, The Disruptors, I'm revisiting early episodes.
My very first guest was Amanda Aguillard, who talked about the magic of process.

Great to see you here!
I should fire my shitty bookkeeper who only gets everything neatly reconciled and updated once a year. 😂
Something similar here, except I’m my only bookkeeping and tax client.
I’m so glad she has you. Every family needs a CPA to help with all this stuff (says the Farr family CPA)
Pictures?
That is huge! She’s lucky to have you.
Three podcast calls with amazing disruptors!
We’re still eating Valentines chocolate!
My 20.5 yo cat is still hanging in! Dementia and kidney disease but she still lives to be brushed.
Yup, mine too.
I read somewhere that the Brussels sprouts grown today are a different variety than the horrid ones I choked down as a kid. Less bitter, more sweet. Hated them then, love them now.
And how was it? Is a third date in the future?
The best way to grow the economy is to put more money in the pockets of people who will actually spend it, not in the pockets of people who will park that cash in investments and not spend it.
Huh. I think I met him at a bar in the U-district. He wanted to skip the date and go straight to marriage and babies
Me too. I feel so fortunate to have found someone who puts up with me. I know there are good men out there. Unfortunately all the ones I know in Seattle are either my age or gay or both.
Similarly, paying your kid’s traffic tickets through your business account does not make them deductible auto expenses.
My cat Charlie did not have a tumor, it was an abscess!
I shared the story of losing my parents and forgiveness with a group at Roundtable Labs and kept it together emotionally!
My shoulder is getting better!
