    The Retirement Trap: Why High-Earning Lawyers Should Rethink Aggressive 401k Saving (with Megan Robin)

    Jared Correia takes us on a psychedelic tour of Memphis before diving into the complex world of tax optimization for business owners.  First, in the monologue, Jared recaps his "mind-f***" trip to Graceland. From the Jungle Room’s porcelain monkeys and a bright yellow-and-black TV room to Elvis’s Gatorade-stocked private jets, Jared explains why the King’s estate is essentially "Redneck Disney World"—a 14-acre compound built to the god of capitalism.  Then, Jared sits down with Megan Robin, owner of Megan Robin Law. Megan holds an LLM in Tax Law and explains how she fills the "multidisciplinary gap" for law firm owners.  In this interview, we discuss: The Conventional Retirement Trap: Why aggressive 401k saving might not make sense for high-earning "knowledge workers" who peak later in life.  The CFO Gap: Why your $500-per-return accountant likely isn't providing a proactive tax strategy.  Real Estate vs. Wall Street: The hidden conflict of interest in Assets Under Management (AUM) fees and why your advisor might be steering you away from property investments.  Niching for Lawyers: Why Megan focuses on the unique entrepreneurial mindset of law firm owners.  Finally, stick around for a new segment: "Taxing Myths and Legends." Jared tests Megan on the weirdest taxes in human history. Find out which are real—from the Ancient Roman urine tax to the 19th-century Ohio squirrel scalp tax.  Learn more about Megan Robin.

    The Art of the Entertainment Deal | Rebroadcast

    In order for any lawyer to be a successful advocate for their client or law firm they must become an excellent dealmaker. However, the secrets to the art of deal closing can seem incredibly elusive to even the most initiated. What are the fundamental tenets of being a good dealmaker, and how does one focus on honing these skills? In this episode of The Legal Toolkit, host Jared Correia sits down with Cohen Gardner LLP Co-Founder Jeff B. Cohen, a former child actor best remembered for his role as Chunk in The Goonies, to discuss dealmaking in the context of the law. The conversation opens with Jeff providing insights into his experiences behind the camera as a child actor and how this unique upbringing influences his perception of entertainment dealmaking. Within these recollections he also discusses how Machiavelli’s “The Prince” aided him after his acting career ended and how these teachings inspired his book “The Dealmaker’s Ten Commandments: Ten Essential Tools for Business Forged in the Trenches of Hollywood.” Jeff provides a glimpse into his methodologies and why he thinks it’s so important for lawyers to effectively manage their time. He then provides a few of his personal commandments and best practices that any legal professional can use to become a more effective and successful dealmaker. Jeff B. Cohen co-founded Cohen Gardner LLP in 2002 and focuses on transactional representation for clients in the entertainment, media and technology verticals. His first book, “The Dealmaker’s Ten Commandments: Ten Essential Tools for Business Forged in the Trenches of Hollywood” was published by the American Bar Association’s imprint Ankerwycke in 2015. Jeff received his Juris Doctor from UCLA Law School with an emphasis in business law and his undergraduate degree from The University of California at Berkeley, Haas School of Business. While at UC Berkeley, Jeff served as President of the Associated Students of the University of California. Oh, man!

    Jared Correia welcomes a true legal tech legend for a record-breaking three-segment appearance. First, Jared and Larry Port (founder of Rocket Matter) crack open a new entry in the "Perfect Album" series: Tom Petty's Full Moon Fever (1989). They debate the merits of the album's solo status, the genius of Jeff Lynne's production, and whether "Free Fallin'" is actually a good song or just California propaganda. Then, in the main interview, Larry discusses life after his successful exit from Rocket Matter. He reveals his new venture, WaySpark, a career coaching platform designed to help young people navigate a volatile labor market shaped by AI, the "silver wave" of retirements, and the decline of white-collar hiring. Larry explains why interpersonal skills are the new currency and why he advocates for the "Family Dinner Test" when choosing a career path. Finally, stick around for the Counter Program: "Hard Work." Jared tests Larry's career coaching expertise with a quiz on bizarre historical and futuristic jobs. Is a "Quantum Janitor" a real thing? What about a Victorian "Pure Finder" who collects dog feces? Tune in to find out! Check out Larry's podcast Dream Job Cafe. Check out this week's Spotify playlist here. Oh, man!
