“For me, tax planning is a lot like skiing. To succeed in either one of them you have to diligently train and prepare yourself for the challenges involved, and have an ability to chart a course that’s right for the terrain. But you also need the agility to handle unexpected bumps and take advantage of unseen opportunities so you can finish strong and victorious.”
