Episode 1

Why "Call Me When You Sell" Is the Worst Advice in Wealth

Learn why proactive tax planning — not backward-looking tax preparation — is essential for high earners seeking smarter growth. The introductory episode also presents Mark and Logan, Prestige’s approach, and the strategies, case studies, and expert conversations ahead.

Show notes

In this episode, Mark shares his philosophy on why most high earners are stuck looking backward at their taxes instead of planning forward — and why "Smart Tax, Smarter Growth" isn't just a tagline, it's the whole approach. He talks about what he's seen over two decades of working with business owners and high-earning professionals, and the gap between tax preparation and tax planning that costs his clients real money before they ever walk through the door.

This is the introduction episode. It sets the table for everything to come — the case studies, the strategies, the guests, and the conversations you won't hear on other financial podcasts. If this resonates, the episodes after it will go deeper into the specifics.

In this episode:

  • Who Mark and Logan are, and what brought them to this work
  • Why this podcast exists and who it's for
  • The difference between tax prep and tax planning, and why it matters
  • What "Smart Tax, Smarter Growth" actually means in practice
  • Why most advisors lead with the portfolio (and why Prestige doesn't)
  • What's coming in future episodes

If you're a business owner, surgeon, consultant, or professional who's starting to feel like more of every dollar you make is going to the IRS than to you, this show was built for you.
