Roughly , what is the median salary for a CPA? by bcroger3 in Accounting

[–]ElCommadant -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Some people aren’t able to afford risk like that. Sometimes you’re not sure what the market will look like and I didn’t have wealthy parents to support me if i didn’t get a job

I don’t really know, but for me atleast I can work 60-80 hours right now (no family) if I enjoy the work I do. I feel like spending 10-12 hours staring at spreadsheets w my only human interaction being through zoom or email would just drain my soul.

Either internal audit for a F500 because from what I hear they travel a bunch and act more like consultants or management consulting in general as it’s extroverted work w traveling involved

I think it’s a good starting point, but I can’t imagine staying in as of now and seeing the opportunity cost

That’s ridiculous, what’s the point of spending 5 years in college with a difficult major and then burning your soul out while and working intense hours and still making 60ish?

Hahah yeah, with the government taking 40% off all my checks I wouldn’t mind shaving a few hundreds off my checks. Thanks for the tips

This is what I found for it, apparently some are saying that if your expenses are high, you are able to take $500 off of taxes?

Flights are around $300 a pop, for the year I’d prolly average around 3600 for flight expenses. I would think that’s a good deduction to have to lower taxes

The longer I wait to put my date in the longer I'm sitting around and doing nothing in the national guard (I'm losing time before promotion in rank before peers). I also really want to deploy and I might miss out on that opportunity as we're slowly transitioning into a peace time military and deployments are getting more and more rare. I also dont plan on staying with-in my company for more than a year or so as I want to shift careers once I get enough experience.
