They don’t look ahead. They don’t coordinate with your other advisors. And they definitely don’t help you make proactive financial decisions.Instead, they practice what we call Autopsy Accounting — and it may already be costing you millions.<hr><h2 id="eccfb504-d1ba-4088-a8e3-d0b9ff1812af" data-toc-id="eccfb504-d1ba-4088-a8e3-d0b9ff1812af" style="font-size: 24px; font-weight: 600; line-height: 1.2;">1. What Is Autopsy Accounting?</h2>Autopsy accounting is what happens when your CPA looks backward, not forward.Each year, they take the financial cadaver of the previous year, cut it open, tally up what happened, and report it to the IRS.It’s a postmortem. A financial obituary.It’s called:<ul><li>“Let’s just see what the numbers look like.”</li><li>“We can’t do anything now, the year is over.”</li><li>“You should’ve done this months ago.”</li></ul>And it always ends with the same punchline: “Maybe next year.”<hr><h3 id="d28e8ceb-25dc-4a24-999f-31dd9f6c789c" data-toc-id="d28e8ceb-25dc-4a24-999f-31dd9f6c789c" style="font-size: 20px; font-weight: 600; line-height: 1.2;">2. The Problem: Next Year Never Comes</h3>By the time you file your taxes in March or April, the IRS already owns last year. And if your CPA didn’t tell you what to do before December 31, then there’s almost nothing you can do now.No strategy. No savings. No control.You’re stuck with what happened. And you’re stuck with a tax bill.That’s not planning. That’s forensic paperwork.<hr><h4 id="b219f6c7-91fc-461e-8841-adb4842eb6c5" data-toc-id="b219f6c7-91fc-461e-8841-adb4842eb6c5" style="font-size: 18px; font-weight: 600; line-height: 1.2;">3. Why Doctors and Entrepreneurs Are Especially at Risk</h4>If you’re earning $400K… $750K… $1M+ per year, the IRS isn’t just taking a bite — they’re taking a feast.And if your CPA is doing autopsy accounting, you’re handing over:<ul><li>Deductions you didn’t know you could take</li><li>Retirement contributions you didn’t make on time</li><li>Real estate strategies you weren’t told about</li><li>Entity structure opportunities no one set up</li><li>Income-splitting moves you missed</li><li>R&amp;D credits or depreciation you never claimed</li></ul>It’s not just a tax bill. It’s years of compounding loss — across taxes, investments, and missed opportunity.<hr><h5 id="29ee124c-c65e-41cf-afbc-961d3d18865b" data-toc-id="29ee124c-c65e-41cf-afbc-961d3d18865b" style="font-size: 16px; font-weight: 600; line-height: 1.2;">4. What It Really Costs You Over Time</h5>Let’s say your CPA’s lack of planning costs you $50,000 per year in avoidable taxes.That’s not just $50,000 lost. That’s:<ul><li>$50,000 per year</li><li>Compounded at 8% over 20 years</li><li>Which equals over $2.3 million in lost wealth</li></ul>And that’s just from doing nothing.Autopsy accounting isn’t just passive. It’s financially fatal.<hr><h5 id="c16b290f-e7b9-41a7-9c35-4d7f5c0237aa" data-toc-id="c16b290f-e7b9-41a7-9c35-4d7f5c0237aa" style="font-size: 16px; font-weight: 600; line-height: 1.2;">5. Why Most CPAs Do It Anyway</h5>It’s not (always) their fault. It’s their model.Most CPAs are:<ul><li>Overloaded with hundreds of clients</li><li>Focused on tax prep, not tax planning</li><li>Paid to file forms, not to generate savings</li><li>Terrified of giving advice that isn’t 100% conservative</li><li>Trained to keep you compliant, not optimized</li></ul>They were never trained to be strategic. They were trained to report the damage.<hr><h5 id="ec2f786a-4f46-4de3-ba36-2f44dc282010" data-toc-id="ec2f786a-4f46-4de3-ba36-2f44dc282010" style="font-size: 16px; font-weight: 600; line-height: 1.2;">6. How Strategic Tax Planning Is Different</h5>Strategic planning asks:<ul><li>What can we change now to reduce next year’s taxes?</li><li>What entities should we form or restructure?</li><li>Can we shift income across entities or family members?</li><li>Can we capture real estate or business deductions?</li><li>Can we proactively invest in tax-advantaged assets?</li><li>Are there IRS-approved ways to convert income into wealth?</li></ul>It’s about playing offense — not just defense.It’s about thinking like a CFO, not a data entry clerk.<hr><h5 id="dfbb29f4-3948-439f-bbf5-c104fb3e5f32" data-toc-id="dfbb29f4-3948-439f-bbf5-c104fb3e5f32" style="font-size: 16px; font-weight: 600; line-height: 1.2;">7. Why You Need a Virtual Family Office — Not Just a CPA</h5>If you’re tired of finding out after the fact what you could’ve done — then you need more than a CPA.You need a system. A team. And someone to run point.That’s what a Virtual Family Office (VFO) is built to do.At SamiCapital, our Virtual Family Office model gives you:<ul><li>A Financial Quarterback to lead the entire process</li><li>Year-round tax strategy sessions, not just a return</li><li>Real-time coordination between your CPA, bookkeeper, attorney, and financial advisor</li><li>Entity structuring, retirement design, and investment tax planning</li><li>Document organization and deadline management inside a secure portal</li><li>Access to your team by phone, Zoom, or in-person — even during tax season</li></ul>We don’t practice autopsy accounting. We practice preventive financial medicine.<hr><h5 id="3cae251b-e822-47bf-90c6-6836eb15ec0d" data-toc-id="3cae251b-e822-47bf-90c6-6836eb15ec0d" style="font-size: 16px; font-weight: 600; line-height: 1.2;">8. What Our Clients Say</h5>Doctors. Entrepreneurs. Investors. Professionals.

And it’s how you should too.<hr><h5 id="ff549abb-984b-4ea9-b9e4-70287ab0a2db" data-toc-id="ff549abb-984b-4ea9-b9e4-70287ab0a2db" style="font-size: 16px; font-weight: 600; line-height: 1.2;">9.
