Wrong reason to choose a tax preparer…

Posted by taxguru on November 11, 2011

I just saw the complete first episode of Ricky Gervais’ new show, Life’s Too Short, and it had the full scene between the main star and his tax accountant.  It is even funnier than the clip I posted earlier; but it also gives more details of how things got in such bad shape.  As too many people do, he had been using the tax services of an incompetent accountant merely because he was a friend.  As is often the case in real life, he now doesn’t have the heart to stop using his friend and will go on paying hundreds of thousands in additional taxes as a result. I’ve lost track of how may times I have heard cases just like this in real life.

Here is the full scene from the first episode.
