Podcast - NPR: How I Built This WWW.NPR.ORG/PODCASTS/510313/HOW-I-BUILT-THIS

Ever wonder how Airbnb happened or who started Burton Snowboards? Guy Raz dives into the fascinating stories behind some of the world’s best-known companies and the innovators, entrepreneurs and idealists who started them. Recent episodes featured Jake Carpenter, who in 1977, at age 23, wanted to design a better version of the Snurfer, a stand-up sled he loved to ride as a teenager. What he created helped launch an entirely new sport along with building the largest snowboard brand in the world. Another recent episode featured Joe Gebbia, co-founder of Airbnb. He shared how he and his co-founders went for it despite overwhelming feedback that their concept would tank. Also in the spotlight is John Mackey, a 1978 college drop-out who scraped together $45,000 to open his first health food store and went on to co-launch Whole Foods Market. Segments run anywhere from 20 to 50 minutes—a small investment of your time and a great way to get motivated!

With 2019 underway, a sobering thought is getting your taxes ready to be filed. It can be challenging to do on your own, so finding a professional tax preparer makes sense. For small businesses and for those who are self-employed, there are extra deductions that can potentially be taken including expenses for travel, computer, cell phone, Internet and even business gifts. Everyone’s situation is different, but your chances for the best refund may include hiring a professional. Jackson Hewitt has 6,000 locations nationwide with 3,000 in Walmart. Their offices are open late and on weekends.
