Taxes are everywhere—and they’re stealing your wealth in plain sight. In this episode of The Passive Income Machine, Ryan D. Lee and tax expert Scott Saunders expose the truth behind the 100+ hidden taxes Americans pay every day—and how the system is quietly profiting off your ignorance.
They break down:
-
Why taxes feel invisible but cost you big
-
How the IRS is your “silent partner” in retirement
-
The real reason tax-deferred accounts might hurt you later
-
Why real estate unlocks powerful tax advantages—and how to start
-
What Congress is actually incentivizing (and how to benefit)
This isn’t just a rant—it’s a roadmap. When you understand how to control the one tax that truly matters—your income tax—you can finally play offense with your money.
