Tyler Perry fired his entire accounting team when he discovered that they had mismanaged his finances and that the IRS owed him $9 million.
The famous filmmaker shared his story with guests at the 2022 Earn Your Leisure Conference, where he spoke about the challenges he faced in business and the many lessons he has learned along the way. “In business it’s ok to make mistakes, but do learn. Don’t let it keep happening over and over again,” Perry said before opening up about his accounting problem. more
Will he recover it tho?I mean, IRS
He must have used H & R Blockheads.
That’s what you get when you hire for diversity, equity & inclusion.
You get fucked by ignorance & incompetence.
Kinda surprising that his accounting team didn’t steal it.
“Gee, I had $9 Million laying around here, somewhere … check the couch!”

You have lots of money, you really need to pay attention.
^^^^ What Necrophidius said. Once every year or so, have an independent auditor come in and check the numbers. You can afford it.
He should consult with Congress as to who they use to hide gazillions in offshore accounts. It’s legal. Pelosi says so.
My friend and I live in Canada and this happened to him as well with Canada Revenue Agency. He has now been audited 7 times and each time he comes out clean but the process is exhausting. He lives on the 27th floor of his apartment building. He told the last auditor that if they come after him again, he will be jumping off the balcony as the stress of the audit is not worth the fact that he wins every time.
