In a world full of financial headlines, it can be tough for high earners to find the right tax solutions. Adding to the dilemma is the fact that most mainstream information caters to those who have less than $1 million in assets. For the wealthy, finding the best strategies can feel like an endless search. Financial products for high-net-worth individuals are not widely circulated. As a result, many are losing out on potential tax benefits and long-term wealth solutions.
That’s where tax expert Matthew Chancey comes in. After going through the coursework needed to become a certified financial planner and spending ample time in the construction and real estate industries, Chancey discovered there is a plethora of options for high income earners. The issue is often one of awareness: taxpayers who meet certain criteria may not know what they can do to save on taxes and manage their net worth.
Fortunately, Chancey is quick to share everything he’s learned throughout his own financial journey. From how to increase net worth through tax savings to handling one-time wealth events, Chancey sheds light on legal practices that make a difference. He shows how to approach required minimum distributions, annual gifting plans, qualified business income, and life insurance strategies. Privately held companies of all sizes will learn new strategies for sophisticated risk retention planning. International high net worth individuals will find unique investment opportunities to consider. Professionals in tax, real estate, business, and legal industries will learn about solutions that provide benefits for everyone involved.
Throughout Tax Alpha Solutions: Effective Tax Management Strategies for High-Net-Worth Investors, Chancey notes that financial trends come and go. The industry has changed over time. Products that worked in the past may not be the best tool for today’s clients. As a result of this evolution, it’s essential to know what’s currently available. Comparing solutions can help determine the right fit going forward.
Working with a tax expert who discusses tax planning options is the first step toward long-term benefits. When looking for the right one, it’s essential to understand the differences between tax preparation and tax planning. Tax preparation typically focuses on putting the right numbers in the right boxes at tax time. This activity tends to center on preparing documents to calculate a tax bill. Tax planning involves strategies to change how income and tax flow. Sessions regarding these solutions are often carried out in the second half of the year. When applied correctly, they can produce tax reductions and wealth protection over time. If your current tax professional doesn’t offer this type of meeting, it may be time to look for an expert who does.

Greg Meerbaum

"I have been working in the financial services business for thirty-five years, and our firm has served CPAs, RIAs, registered advisors, and internal clients with needs for tax-advantaged products during that time. Most of these folks have a limited understanding of what the solutions are and how they really work. Tax Alpha Solutions should be mandatory reading for anyone wanting to know pathways to better understand tax-advantaged investing to get better tax-smart financial outcomes. I certainly found this to be useful to me and how I will work with professionals going forward."
Gene King

"Building, growing, and running a successful business is hard enough without having to navigate the nuances of the tax system. After fifteen years of building a successful business, we were fortunate enough to sell but like most weren’t prepared for what to do next. That’s where Matt came in and educated us on tax strategies we weren’t aware of, which saved us millions of dollars. If you’re a business owner, the time to start planning is now and this is the book to help you do it."

"Knowledge. It’s the first word I think of when I think of Matt Chancey. It’s what I want when I seek help, and what clients need—and Matt is driven to know it all. I’ve known Matt for about seven or eight years now, and in my many years as a CPA practitioner there are few who are as knowledgeable in his field and able to present their knowledge in a clear and understandable manner. It’s clear when you work with Matt that the purpose of obtaining all this knowledge is to inform the client about everything they need to know, so they can make the most informed decision possible in their best interest. I hope the words in his book bring to life the energy he has in person."

"Matt Chancey is one of the most knowledgeable certified financial planners I have ever met.

Matt's know-how and capabilities, coupled with his ingenuity and honesty make him top of the list for me for any client recommendations or referrals. Ninety-nine percent of my clients are selling their life's work as they sell their company after many years of ownership, and I trust sending them to Matt for tax guidance, deferral, and elimination."
