Episode description
Lighting designer Lap Chi Chu discusses career finances and the importance of paying off debt early.
We discuss:
⭐️ Taxes
⭐️ Student loans
⭐️ Getting an accountant
⭐️ Lap’s most “lucrative” job
⭐️ Incorporating as a freelancer
⭐️ Combining finances during marriage
My takeaways were:
⭐️ Use an accountant
⭐️ Work begets work so do a GOOD JOB
⭐️ Lap set up a SIMPLE IRA and uses it 30 years later
⭐️ CONSISTENT paychecks are what make ARTS jobs "lucrative"
⭐️ Debt and student loans - pay off sooner EVEN if the payments are manageable
