Our company, Raising Cents, is a financial service provider. We'll do your taxes, create a corporation for your business, we'll take care of your bookkeeping, and consult you on better business practices. A new service that we have added is budget creation, budget redesign, and debt elimination. We are not a company that sells a get rich quick scheme nor do we boast turning your debt into riches, and we sure don't charge you an arm and a leg for our services. Our goal is to improve your lifestyle, increase your cash flow, and increase your financial knowledge. Our newest service, Budgeting, is targeted at individuals, couples, and families across America. We try to show people how our culture has convinced us to live outside of our means, and how many Americans have bought into it hook, line, and sinker! If you live outside your means there are usually about 3 to 4 credit cards in your wallet or purse that have an outstanding balance. Also you become used to being in debt and living a certain lifestyle. When you realize that living this lifestyle has gotten you into a bit of a financial bind your lifestyle must change. At Raising Cents we understand this change and understand how hard it is to swallow. Making the transition to a less expensive lifestyle is difficult. People don't always know what to do, how to go about changing, or how to rework their budget. Budget? You did have a budget, right? If you are having some financial troubles you probably didn't have a budget or if you did than you didn't have a well constructed budget. A well-constructed budget is one that details all of your expenses, monthly. It will help you to see where your money is going, right down every last penny. If you don't there is room for you to make a mistake with your money and fall into another pitfall. Remember this is what got you into this predicament in the first place. We are trying to change the way you spend and view your money. Do not take it lightly it is a very serious matter. Over the next few weeks we are going to discuss how to track your finances, how to categorize your expenses, and how to use the data that you collected. The topics are the preliminary steps to creating a well-constructed budget. After we get the preliminaries out of the way we can discuss the creation of such an important tool in your financial portfolio. Have any questions comment below or email me at info@raisingcents.com. ...read more

Millions of people find it "EASIER" to get their taxes done quick by a stranger. This person may have never met you before, surely doesn't know anything about your financial situation, and absolutely has know idea how you spend your money. How much will they get from a meeting in a cubicle for an hour or in a Wal-Mart or on-line? I'm betting not the whole picture. I'm sure their is more information that may be left out that could possibly benefit you and your family. People!!! Don't go to Wally World to get your taxes done! Don't leave it to a computer! Don't leave it to a stranger! This guy can't help. Your finances are highly important. They make or break families. Finances can make life easier or harder. Your tax return is the holy grail of your financial year. It details everything you have done and how Uncle Sam is going to dip his hand into your pocket. This document can not be done quickly and can not be done without some knowledge of you and your family. Please read the fine print. Companies charge you a fee, not a small one, to get your money back, on top of the fee they charge to file your tax return. So when all said and done, a guy, you just met, summarized your complete year's finances in ohhhh, 30 minutes. Uncle Sam took their chunk, leaving you with either a little money back or you owe money. Now to top things off, you pay a bunch extra to get your money, which is actually free, but they decide to charge you for it. Lucky you. There is a way to benefit from the relationship you make with your accountant. We, Raising Cents, take our time to get to know you and your family so we know what's important to you. We take our time to analyze every part of your return to make sure it accurate and you benefit from any programs the government may offer. We triple check it. 3 different people check the return to make sure we haven't missed anything. Remember your finances are extremely important and we know that. That is our #1 priority. We don't stop working for you after we file your taxes. We here all year…ALL YEAR!! Call us, we'd love to hear from you and to help you with any questions you may have. If you keep paying out taxes at the end of the year, we can help you to manage your money and taxes better so you can reduce that payment or get a return instead. We will come to you, to help you. We love our clients and we don't charge them to get their money. This year alone we helped families cash in on over $800,000 in tax return money. That's an average of about $4500 per return. Don't be fooled, be taken care of. www.raisingcents.com ...read more
