Jimmy Wade, CPA - Owner

Hey! I'm Jimmy, an experienced CPA driven to build a business that simplifies tax preparation and inspires individuals to think differently about their personal finances.

With nearly two decades (aka 'tax seasons', as we CPAs track it) delivering tax services to business and individual clients, I love helping anyone looking to improve their personal tax, financial, or entrepreneurial life!

Why "FIRE CPA for Hire"? FIRE stands for Financial Independence, Retire Early. It’s a movement that helped many—me included—realize that true financial wealth isn't just a number in a bank account; it's a measure of your flexibility to spend your time exactly how you want. Personally, I like to think of the ‘RE’ as Rewire Early instead of Retire Early. You don't need a massive salary or net worth to creatively evaluate your paths to greater flexibility, and you don't have to wait until age 65 to 'rewire' your career and intentionally design a life aligned with your core goals.

Over the years, I developed a skillset in taxes along with a passion for entrepreneurship and the concepts of financial independence. I decided it was time to take action for myself and 'rewired' my own life and career by leaving a great company and job for the unknown. This is what led me to launch FIRE CPA for Hire and split my time serving clients in Indianapolis, IN and St. Petersburg, FL.

Now I'm motivated to build a business that brings together my professional skills, personal interests, and lifestyle goals. From solopreneurs and rental property investors to FIRE enthusiasts and traditional retirees, I help like-minded individuals simplify their tax lives and plan for meaningful changes in their personal lives!
