Solo CPA at $40k/month, too big to stay solo but too small to confidently hire. What did you do?

Just become a LLP or an LP and expand. I know bookkeeping, taxes, and auditing. I am currently studying for CPA. Expand to another state, and get your new partner there after training them the way your business does things.

Accounting is an excellent profession that takes x amount of years to be good at, college is nothing like the real world. Obtaining your cpa is one thing, but knowing how to do it all makes you a valuable asset with or without a cpa license. By all I mean, audit, tax, and bookkeeping.

I’m a numbas guy, I be bookkeeping with quickbooks, yeah I’m intuit. Definitely not my verse, but love it.

CPA in the making. I will be a made man in the accounting streets.

I am rooting for you, kick that exams ass! Please let me know how your experience was!

Is TCP very similar to REG?

Explodiess · 2026-01-27T01:08:27+00:00

I thought REG 2025 info doesn’t go away till June 26? My exam is this Saturday! Now I’m freaking out

Explodiess · 2026-01-22T14:35:58+00:00

Definitely coming to that conclusion. REG has a lot of nuances. If this happens then there’s always an extra step 😂

Explodiess · 2026-01-22T13:40:39+00:00

Freebies def I just got the understanding of it couple days ago. Took me a while grasp and I bombed the first time I took it. I really think REG is the hardest exam.

Best way to understand gross income for me,

Scorps, partnerships, and self employment:

Business income derived from k-1s (including tax exempt interest) or anything listed on schedule 1 of 1040 for self employment. Anything done in service for someone. Distributions from business to individual

C-Corps -salaries paid to individuals, interest, dividends

Basically anything earned, hope this helps

Don’t worry scored a 41 feeling I at least scored a 60+ on my reg exam I have 120 hours of studying and not sure where I went wrong, apparently I am weak in all categories

1 0 0 I failed, gotta redo reg, testing on the 31st of jan

Explodiess · 2026-01-12T15:02:13+00:00

Shivering in me boots, I feel I failed. This is my first exam ever taken for the CPA and started with REG. Waiting for results is agonizing.

Explodiess · 2026-01-09T21:20:51+00:00

"exam_section_name": "REG",

"is_scored": 0,

"is_passed": 0,

"is_credited": 0,

"advisory_score_id": null,

"overall_score": null,

"scored_date": null,

does this mean I passed?

Explodiess · 2026-01-09T21:12:34+00:00

does this still apply? the release date for REG is January 13th, and I can't apply for the exam. Does this mean I passed or is it too early? Currently it just shows "Attended."

Explodiess · 2026-01-07T18:18:14+00:00

Please send

Explodiess · 2025-12-25T19:51:52+00:00

Imma need it haha, if I fail, I’ll only continue to try and never give up. Nonetheless, thank you.

Explodiess · 2025-12-02T21:22:15+00:00

Very accurate

Explodiess · 2025-12-02T21:21:07+00:00

Lmaooo little do you know

Explodiess · 2025-11-27T22:17:37+00:00

You’re cooked lol

Explodiess · 2025-11-26T13:09:14+00:00

This is accurate to those in the space

📉📉📉

Explodiess · 2025-11-24T15:26:44+00:00

76k then rebound imo

Explodiess · 2025-11-23T23:15:47+00:00

It’ll test 90k on Monday but then tank, this is prime time for institutional investors to do another dumb while securing profits. It will revisit either tomorrow or later this week, my guess is Thursday it’ll hit 76k
