What if your tax dollars could become a tool for impact rather than just a liability? That's the perspective Rusty Cagle brings to this conversation.

In this episode, Adi Klevit interviews Rusty about his journey from a difficult childhood to becoming a leading advisor to entrepreneurs and business owners. He shares how his personal story shaped his purpose-driven approach and the launch of his "100-Year Impact" vision, helping businesses think beyond profits toward lasting legacies.

Rusty outlines the three pillars he uses to guide clients—clarity, collaboration, and transitioning from being overly taxed to fairly taxed. He explains how businesses can treat taxes as "tax capital," using strategies like entity restructuring and charitable giving to maximize value. Throughout, he emphasizes the importance of systems that align advisors, forecast tax impact, and create predictable financial outcomes.
