Hello. My name is Sharif Muhammad, My friends call me Rif (pronounced “Reef”) or the Prophet (not in a religious sense; just a person who has the answer to a lot of questions). I am a 43 year-old financial expert with over 20 years of professional experience in the areas of Accounting, Tax, Investment Management, Hedge Funds, Private Equity, Tax and Financial Services. I am a licensed Certified Public Accountant (“CPA”) with a degree in Economics, an MBA in Finance and Accounting and a Masters in Taxation. I am also a licensed Stock Broker, Investment Advisor Representative, and Life & Health Insurance Producer. This blog is geared towards sharing information about various tax and personal finance topics, as well as other topics that I hope will be both informative and entertaining to you.
I started Problem Solved for a number of reasons. One, many of my friends nagged me like crazy to share posts about topics that I was posting to Facebook. Two, I truly want to develop content that can be shared with everyone from an expert such as myself for your reference and personal growth. Lastly, I selfishly would like to develop my writing and content-sharing skills and hope that this blogging experience will help me in that department as well.
I will be sharing TONS of stuff, and hope to get a podcast off the ground with featured experts in areas such as the law, banking and mortgages, personal credit, and real estate to ensure that you get the best-sourced information on such topics. And if there is a topic that you want to be discussed, feel free to contact me via email or through social media so that I can try to put together posts that is useful to you.
I am super excited about this blog! Thank you so much for tuning in!
