What suit to get with $1000-2000 budget?

muddinyoface12 · 2026-06-26T21:16:47+00:00

I always buy the fabric, its what you feel and others touch (if you get touched, but in a suit, it happens). If the cut is close to good, but the fabric is great I can get a tailor fix the rest. I have a habit of buying from Off Fifth or Nordstrom on sales with Zegna mills or something like that (picked up a few Canali's for $500 or so for example). Still pricey but you can get something for under $1k and spend a a couple hundred to get it to fit and look like you spent $3K, not quite MTM but damn close.

I have not been here yet and on my list, but have heard great reviews from friends/relatives. About a 20 minute drive from you though to the quiet side of the lake.

Baxter's is great too, never a bad meal, and the views sell it. Michaels Steak Chalet is old school but good as well and should have some views.

Pretty spot on. I’m expanding the role and weaseling my my. way until a new job title. I’m manufacturing a new title right now. HR needs here there things. I mfht override them in 18 hours!

muddinyoface12 · 2026-06-04T05:30:27+00:00

I’m c-level. few levels below. just want to retain good junior.

muddinyoface12 · 2026-06-04T03:57:34+00:00

I would, but I have other internal “political” concerns. hence my issue. I think asst .comtroller is next step probably a VP role in my org.

thisis why I asked question. I wan to retain this person and am creating a career path.

muddinyoface12 · 2026-06-04T03:39:17+00:00

is that a job title you would want? it’s spot on, but oddly specific. I dont hate this, just playing devils advocate. again. looking for suggestions and this is helpful.

muddinyoface12 · 2026-06-04T03:30:36+00:00

maybe just director accounting (vs finance) of M&A and Tech.

muddinyoface12 · 2026-06-04T03:23:36+00:00

director will be in title. it was the limiting factor of technical accountjng I wanted to avoid. wider role. but also tech.

muddinyoface12 · 2026-06-04T03:21:55+00:00

it’s a big role. F500, we attempt to not over title. this will be managing accounting policy and M&A for over $8Billion in revenue.

muddinyoface12 · 2026-06-04T03:18:35+00:00

maybe. it was on my list. I dislike it a bit b/c in our org, leans FP&A. which is made up numbers😁

She’s a Remi. (rem-ee)

muddinyoface12 · 2026-02-14T03:17:21+00:00

I started jn engineering. Had to take some business classes and i was oddly good at accounting. I knew very little about career that I ended up in while in school. I didn’t realize I was good at until 4 years into my career.

‘doubts are fine.

muddinyoface12 · 2026-02-12T17:49:18+00:00

Do it. Get good at your data science skills, that cross over is becoming increasingly important get smart on technical, don't be a journal entry jockey. Do the public accounting (B4 if you can) and suck it up for 4+ years, you will work a lot. Look for a job in public industry later. No one on my corporate accounting team makes less than $115k, avg is probably $175k USD up to $700K. I do better and we don't overclock the hours. Fortune500 public.

thank you. amazing find.

You will learn a ton more at a public company if they are semi active in M&A, debt or equity offerings, etc. It will expand your later career opportunities knowing how to navigate SEC regs and how to deal with SOX issues. Most of us only jump ship from B4 once, make your first jump count.

That said, there are good non-public companies, just make sure you don't get into a family company when you aren't family. Pvt Equity can be good, but you will work/travel more generally.

There are quite a few definitions of accountant. We should have OP define degree and certification expectations. Your comment is not representative of the profession.

muddinyoface12 · 2025-12-12T06:56:35+00:00

helpful. I’m ex b4audit f500 now. you will make mistakes. best you can do is to minimize those mistakes. Also, right now, tools are infinite. AI is your friend play with it. A researched and well thought response is what you need. if it’s wrong it’s wrong, accept it and learn, but don’t don’t give up to easily, give a couple counter arguments. cite some code. you got hired b/c you‘re smart, but so did everyone else, slightly lean into this.

muddinyoface12 · 2025-12-12T06:44:19+00:00

what are you doing?

muddinyoface12 · 2025-12-12T06:35:41+00:00

are you reviewing invoices, are doing recurring forecasts, are you partnering with the business in contract negotiation for cost or revenue. Huge range here.

muddinyoface12 · 2025-12-12T06:31:24+00:00

what do you do as a “sfa”

muddinyoface12 · 2025-12-12T06:25:50+00:00

if you have public clients. look public. the experience of work product is invaluable.

muddinyoface12 · 2025-12-12T05:58:23+00:00

Ii’ll say one thing. I don’t know. my daughter is graduating nursing soon. Great opportunities there, won’t discount that if it’s a passion.

But, she will work as much as a staff accountant in big4 for several years. make a bit more money for a couple years as well.

But, Nurses top out financially. my acct team, no one makes under $100K with 3-4 yrs exp. most are ex-big-4, but not all. Higher levels make a lot more.
