Steven is joined this week by someone with personal and professional experience with international taxes: Matthew Green. Matthew shares his personal experience learning about the US's approach to taxing it's citizens living abroad and through that started sharing his newfound expertise with others. He now works specifically with taxpayers navigating international waters to make sure they don't get killed on taxes. While a lot of the discussion is around avoiding common mistakes and staying in the IRS's good graces, Matthew and Steven also talk about the potential for tax planning, even when there are international considerations.

Steven is joined this week by another industry Tax Titan, Debbie Taylor. Steven and Debbie nerd out on all things Roth, taking turns sharing their "favorite" rules of thumb on Roth conversions and why they aren't as helpful as most people make them out to be. It was a struggle for this dynamic duo to keep it to just 30 minutes, which means the time they did spend is packed with actionable insight on how you can wade through the noise and truly help clients when it comes to getting Roth conversions done.
