There’s always something to howl about.

The two dirtiest words in English are “tax” and “attorney” — but new contributor Phil Hodgen is both…

Phil Hodgen has been a friend of BloodhoundBlog for a long time. He’s an international tax attorney working out of Pasadena, so why would he be reading the dawgs? Marketing and iconoclasm, the only two things we actually understand.

At Chris Johnson’s suggestion, he joins us today. Here’s his bio:

Phil is an international tax lawyer. Home is in Pasadena, CA. Clients are all over the world. Yes, he’s of those people you read about, setting up foreign trusts and other weird stuff in small palm-fronded countries. His clients like U.S. real estate, although at the moment they are just kicking tires. Phil makes complex tax stuff easy to understand.

Sounds like a giant killer to me. Let’s give him a big axe and see what he can do with it.
