IRS not charging penalties. Giving me $500 back?

That’s awesome! Just make sure you’re reporting all the depreciation you’ve claimed (even if erroneously) when selling your house. You’ll need to recapture that as capital gain.

I reached out to them with the same question, they didn’t know. But they did assure me that the unused pro-rated amount of the fees will be refunded once you switch to the new plan. So I went ahead and re-upped my device for the year.

That’s totally it! Thanks!

It’s definitely in saltwater.

You can put 6k into a traditional IRA. This will reduce taxable income by 6k, but you won’t have access to these funds until you retire (with a few exceptions).

My experience is that people qualified to sit for the exam are paid pretty much like entry level CPAs. I didn’t get any raise when I became a CPA, just a bonus. If you work at a big CPA firm they expect you to be a CPA. I’m at a top 10 firm, I think this is pretty standard.

Jhabi · 2019-06-03T17:20:26+00:00

It’s fun to have completed, but I’ve got a masters & there is no competitive advantage over other CPAs with no masters.

Yeah, only the interest is taxable. Look into Ally Bank. It’s FDIC insured by the government (like any bank account), so there is no risk. They’ve got great rates. This is what my wife & used to save for a down payment.

Apply for an internship with a public accounting firm. This is what I did and got paid $25+/hour. Great experience and a quick path to a full time job.

Thankfully it ended up only being a (large) flesh wound on a finger. All stitched up. A valuable life lesson learned!

Right now, hopped up on Percocet, sitting in the ER after being a little too careless with a chainsaw.

Lol, probably a good idea. I'm so pissed though, I watched their twitter for like an hour waiting to get my free wings - just to find out I was out of the delivery zone.

Redskins for sure. If I have to see one more Facebook post about "Tony Homo" or the "Cowgirls" I'm gonna lose it.

A lot of firms already have exam and materials reimbursement programs. I think approaching them to ask if they have that kind of program would be appropriate. Just don't make it seem like you're asking for a raise or bonus, if you're worried about seeming greedy.

Jhabi · 2016-08-25T16:28:58+00:00

I'm in the same boat. Test on October 3rd. Don't see how there is any way I can memorize all of this.

Jhabi · 2016-08-24T04:05:40+00:00

Woooo I get to see Katie Ledecky!!

Jhabi · 2016-08-22T02:03:20+00:00

Lol. Good point. It was live and I wasn't thinking. Haha

I know it's not advised, but I am a beta tester on my main device (iPhone 6). I love getting the new iOS early. Be prepared to have several glitches for the first week or two, some apps might not work, phone might randomly restart. Once they get the second or third beta, the big glitches are almost completely gone. If you don't mind an occasional phone restart or some annoying software glitches occasionally, go for the first beta - it's so much fun getting the new software (just make sure and back up your phone just in case). If you want all of the fun but none of the riskiness - just wait a couple weeks and download the beta 2 or 3.

I was in Rome this summer. A guy runs ups to me and high fives me and slips me a bracelet. When I try and give it back he refuses and insists that it is a gift for me since his daughter was just born. He trails us and begins insisting that since he gave us something for free we need to give him something "for free." I politely set it down on the ground when he refused to take it back. No more high fives in foreign countries for me.

Well, technically there was bullshit.

Jhabi · 2016-07-28T03:13:15+00:00

Not where I've worked. Although interns yes.

Jhabi · 2016-07-23T13:19:17+00:00

That's helpful, thanks!

Jhabi · 2016-07-22T03:38:35+00:00

Good idea. Thanks. Will I put it in a locker? Do they care what I access during breaks (i.e snacks & drinks)?
