Paul

Finance Pals helps business owners increase profits by providing bookkeeping, tax, and CFO services. We make accounting fun and easy.

Two hashtags that best describe you 
#dad, #entrepreneur

What do you consider your greatest achievement?
My family – happily married 11+ years with 3 kiddos

What is your idea of perfect happiness?
Vacation with some adventure, great food, and lots of relaxing time

What are your top tips for balancing work and life?
For me it has always been balancing work. I try to stop work every day at 5:30 PM so I can enjoy dinner and bedtime with my family. I also block my calendar on any days I start to get busy – more than 3 networking meetings or a deadline.

What is your motto?
Be happy and healthy, but when I was younger it was work hard / play hard

What is a legal mistake you wish someone warned you about?
I signed a contract that had a 90-day notification policy to cancel, so when I wanted to stop services I still had to pay for 3 more months.
