Confused by the tax bills introduced by the Senate and the House? Are you wondering who the real winners and losers are? Today’s guest, Tom Wheelwright, unpacks the tax bills and shares the important parts in easily digestible pieces. Tom is the tax advisor for the Rich Dad series, the author of the must-read, Tax-Free Wealthand contributor to the new books, Why the Rich are Getting Richer and More Important than Money.
