About James
Biography
As an attorney and a CPA I spend a lot of time at work, especially during tax season! I also spend a great deal of time writing books and articles and giving consumer workshops on IRA and retirement planning, tax planning, and estate planning. When I do have time off, I enjoy chess, bridge, bicycling, hiking, and kayaking.
