If you hate paying taxes, then you should love learning about taxes because that’s the way to reduce them. My guest, Kaye Thomas, received his law degree from Harvard Law School in 1980 and then began his career as a tax attorney, dealing with complex tax matters related to business transactions, finance, and compensation.

Kaye now spends his time as a writer, publisher, public speaker, and consultant on topics relating to taxation and investments. He has written several books, including Capital Gains…Minimum Taxes, Go Roth! A guide to the Roth IRA and other Roth accounts, and Consider Your Options, a plain language guide to company stock and stock option compensation plans. His website, Fairmark.com, provides free plain-language guidance on the taxation of investments, taxes in retirement, kids and taxes, taxes on stock-based compensation, and much more.

The Bogleheads on Investing podcast is hosted by Rick Ferri, CFA, a long-time Boglehead and investment adviser. The Bogleheads are a group of like-minded individual investors who follow the general investment and business beliefs of John C. Bogle, founder and former CEO of the Vanguard Group. It is a conflict-free community where individual investors reach out and provide education, assistance, and relevant information to other investors of all experience levels at no cost. The organization supports a free forum at Bogleheads.org, and the wiki site is Bogleheads® wiki.

Since 2000, the Bogleheads' have held national conferences in major cities nationwide. There are also many Local Chapters in the US and even a few Foreign Chapters that meet regularly. New Chapters are being added regularly. All Bogleheads activities are coordinated by volunteers who contribute their time and talent.

This podcast is supported by the John C. Bogle Center for Financial Literacy, a non-profit organization approved by the IRS as a 501(c)(3) public charity on February 6, 2012. Your tax-deductible donation to the Bogle Center is appreciated.
