In today’s episode of our “Get to Know Your Expert Council” series, we’re talking taxes—but not the way your CPA would. Matthew Sercely of Agorist Tax Advice joins us to break down how feral humans can play the money game without selling out or ending up in hot water.

Matthew isn’t just some guy with opinions. He’s a legit tax advisor with a law background who works with real-world clients—from solopreneurs to medical pros—helping them keep more of their money and stay out of the IRS’s crosshairs. If you’re trying to live free, earn on your terms, or build outside the system, you can’t afford to ignore this stuff.

We dig into what it means to be “feral” with your finances, how to use the tax code without getting used by it, and the fine line between aggressive and stupid. You’ll hear practical ways to claim overlooked deductions, structure your side hustle, and avoid common traps that could bring the heat.

This isn’t fear porn. It’s strategic resistance—built on knowledge, not bluster.
