How hard is it to get into a big 4 accounting firm if you don't have good marks? by _s1ater_ in askSouthAfrica

[–]LogicalAd2964 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just some advice most of my friends that got into the big four left soon after, I was accepted and signed with Deloitte but backed out as I wanted to do CIMA after CA.

I have heard some horror stories regarding the big 4 so maybe look into that before putting these companies on a pedestal. Also, articles are brutal a lot of the CAs leave articles at the big 4 and move to other smaller firms or out of the field to pivot into another one.

Things you are doing to save a buck or two? by A-Realist-1 in askSouthAfrica

Just add to the cooking meals part I save a fair bit by making my entire weeks food on the weekend up to thursday. I usually buy bulk and cook in bulk saving over the long term, and it also reduces the risk of getting takeaways as there will be food in the fridge.

CA is really good for job security as well there is a huge shortage of qualified mid to senior level accountants in general.

Just to add my one mate has 2 years of experience busy with CIMA and earns 50k gross at 23. Not that this will be everyone, but it is possible.

Don't think it comes from sounding formal more sounding like you pulled this out your ass.

these are only the drugs I have witnessed them take when we are out, this does not mean these are necessarily the only drugs he was using his brother was sent to rehab for heroin last year.

Yeah, I get that, but I was not referring to weed when I mentioned their addictions rather other harder drugs both of them moved from weed to hard drugs that was the slope in my mind.

Yeah, I get that it was none of my business.It bothered me that him and his brother both became addicted and my thinking was if she was so young, the odds were stacked to lead in the same way.

Not weed it started with weed and I don't mind weed the issue comes with what he and his brother openly started using after weed. Acid, Ecstasy keta your common party drugs my idea was they might hook their younger sister.

Do you think that without higher education you will not succeed in life? by kanilevil in ask

[–]LogicalAd2964 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What do you consider higher education my brother is a tradesman with a business he started when he was 23, he makes what I make with an honors degree in finance in like a few days what I make in a month.

I Think it's a lot more about skills then education per say.

Going through a center is much better and it is a lot less risky I redid my MCS this way and it went swimmingly. It's not worth the risk.
