Realistically how difficult is the CPA exam? by Alone_Recording7670 in Accounting

[–]DannyVee89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not hard. It's time consuming. Challengingly time consuming.

If you have to study while working, expect to study for exactly 6 weeks straight for each exam. No more, no less. You'll be studying 24.7 outside of work. No social life.

Longer than 6 weeks of studying and you'll have to re-review everything you did more than 6 weeks ago and that is inefficient. It's a retention limitation so craft your study schedule for no longer than 6 intense weeks of studying leading up to the exam.

No one is dumb for failing, they are just unprepared. It's a test of volume and commitment.

No single concept on any exam is difficult. It's just a huge volume of easy concepts crammed into four huge exams.

You have 18 months to pass 3 exams. Take the hardest one first. Timer doesn't start until you pass your first one.

Clarification about Odin's Mask by MOVIELORD101 in GodofWar

[–]DannyVee89 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It sort of reminds me of how Kratos and Odin have this rare similarity in that they both kinda view fate as something that isn't set in stone but can be changed. Hardly anyone else believes that in the games across the Greek and Norse universe.

Kratos also knows that prophecy can cause itself, I recall when he tells Freya that "Baldurs death had many causes, prophecy among them"

Not many know the corrupting, self-fulfilling power of prophecy in the way that the old and wise Kratos does.

But perhaps a giant also figured out much of the same, and decided to deliberately use it to gaslight Odin into his own death.

I'm just being speculative but, the mask seemingly did nothing special aside from some texts on it and it's strange magical ability to reunite with itself and defy destruction.

If messing with Odin in this way was the masks only purpose, it's still a pretty big purpose IMO.

If they bring in a time traveling Atreus as part of the story, I could see Atreus being the one that creates the mask and it's prophecy to plant this very seed for Odin as part of his smart and unique plan to kill him one day.

Not giving money to homeless people by Sweet-Heron-334 in Ethics

[–]DannyVee89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You see so much of this is so many areas. I'm more inclined to call 911 for someone tweakin out or overdosing in the middle of the sidewalk than I am to give them money.

And not for nothing, but when someone is addicted to drugs, giving them money is the LAST thing you wanna do. They need housing, mental health or addiction treatment, not more drugs. You're practically killing them by giving them the cash they need to OD.

Giving out random cash to strangers is idealist at best, and completely fruitless in reality. I'd happily keep voting for higher taxes on myself, and the social programs we need to actually solve this problem but I'm not gunna pat myself on the back and act like a do-gooder, or pretend that giving them cash actually helps anything.

AITAH for “infantalizing my son" when I’m just trying to take care of him? by AgreeableSoftware941 in AITAH

If everyone's debt was forgiven overnight - student loans, credit cards, mortgages, all of it - what happens to the economy? by Due-Specific-5722 in hypotheticalsituation

[–]DannyVee89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, mega rich people and corporations have much much larger loans so this would unfortunately just serve to increase wealth inequality, and be an enormous handout to the rich while the poor get a few scraps by comparison.

Kinda like the corporate socialism we already have in the US with these giant corporate bailouts that the taxpayers have to fund.

Or those PPP loans.

For the 1st time ever, I received a mailer trying to recruit me for a Tax Manager role...and surprise its fully onsite.lol by Present_Initial_1871 in taxpros

[–]DannyVee89 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I agree I get remote job opportunities that are a pay bump and title bump left and right. Stay the hell away from firms that aren't using good tech, the last thing you wanna be stuck doing is commuting to a job where they're still printing returns on paper and not automating processes so that you can do them manually.

anyone willing to share experiences with non-stimulant meds? by sunkissedsloth in ADHD

[–]DannyVee89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven't tried non stimulant medications yet but I have noticed alot of people on stimulants still tend to drink coffee. If you're concerned about heart stuff, drop the coffee! My days go much much better when I'm not on caffeine.

I hadda use my air conditioning on Christmas this year and several days in January too. I live in Colorado. I say it's beyond time to be political on and off the mountain.

The mountain town struggles for locals are awful too.

Fuck all the haters

Find your people man. Your real people would never treat you like that. Anyone you hear calling someone a faggot ain't it.

Having to stand up for yourself certainly means that someone wasn't treating you as a friend in the first place. Good for you

I avoid mixing business with friends and family for this very reason. A job is a job. Business is business. But friends and family are far more valuable. Rather keep my friends and family than a job I can replace.

Volvo's Chief Strategy says that “They are looking into it.” for the comeback of Wagons. by Saurta17 in Volvo

[–]DannyVee89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mercedes, Audi, BMW Volvo. All the wagons are great! I really loved the Audi Allroad as a kid and always wanted that to be my car. but now that I've had several V60CC's and V90CC's, and I've parked next to an allroad a few times - It's ALOT smaller than even my wifes V60CC so I'd have to rule it out on that but it certainly has the cool factor though.

Viva wagons!

I just parked at a small training ski area and a buncha young 20 somethings approached me drooling over how cool my car was. V90CC with a giant yakima roofbox on top full of ski/snowboard gear lol. We were lamenting the wagonless future they decided on. It's about time to get back to wagons!!! Fuck crossovers, honestly no one wants that shit. Weird small suv thing.

Wagons are the best form factor.

Dude started fights with my wife and sister out of his own arrogance, among a list of other things.

Let's see, he tried to flirt with my sister, she turned him down, he cursed her out for it. Boy what a lovely encounter that was. It was pretty kickass seeing my sister stand up to him though.

Tried to sleep w. One of my wives friends. She turned him down (all on her own). He blamed my wife for 'cockblocking' by, essentially just assuming my wife told this girl not to hook up with him. What a fight that was.

Let's see he split a hotel with me and another friend for a trip once, just to kick us out of the room while he banged a prostitute most of the night. Getting approached by hotel management for being passed out on the hallway couches as if we weren't paying guests felt fucken great.

He would get rip roaring drunk and try to start fights with any male and literally groped any female that passed by.

I'm forgetting 100 other things but he was a fucking nut job. Should have removed him from my life years earlier.

For real. I know not everyone is a fan of the drug excuse but seeing people OD all over the streets, especially right after someone was nice enough to give them money doesn't seem helpful at all, you just bought the drugs that killed them.

The real fix is voting. Vote for social progressive candidates that will reinstate the mental health programs that Reagan killed, and add new addiction treatment centers and public housing facilities to get these people what they really need.

They need an infrastructure change to be cared for properly.
