If you wait until tax season to think about taxes, you are already behind. The number one mistake Ramp sees small business owners make when it comes to taxes is failing to plan.

So, it's no surprise that many characters in pop culture are described as narcissistic, even though not all of them meet the criteria for the disorder. While the term "narcissism" is often overused, it offers a lens through which to examine the dynamics of power, control, and emotional...
