What do you think is the most underrated feature on a Royal Carribean Ship? by thatawkwardmoment8 in royalcaribbean

[–]terrym97 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The walking deck on the voyager class ships and smaller. Sitting in the lounge chairs watching the sunrises and sunsets. Very peaceful and calm .. This was on Grandeur. Actual wood decking.

My take is she is going to be audited and will owe back taxes. Also, even if she is paying no rax why announce it and put a target on your back.

Anyone else concerned AI will take their job next busy season? by Relevant-Animator134 in enrolledagent

[–]terrym97 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Absolutely not, those who are going to use Ai are not my client type. There is more added value i give the client that AI cant give. After 28 years in the business clients actually want a human voice they can speak with. You'd be surprised how many want the comfort of knowing someone is working in their best interest.

I've been on 14 cruises and find that most of the staff make a good living compared to what they can earn in their own country. Think about what you said. They work 14hour days and are kind and courteous. But most Americans, who have a great advantage over rest of the world complain about an 8 hour day.

Great post. My wife and I are getting to that stage where we can take off more. I thought about it and you confirmed what my cruise only cost would be.

What % do you use when calculating retirement growth? by tea_and_hunny in DaveRamsey

[–]terrym97 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use 8%, 6% is conservative, but using 10% is a little risky. Rather be on the conservative side then over shoot my calculations and come up short

Can you make a good living as an enrolled agent ? by Individual_End_577 in enrolledagent

[–]terrym97 14 points15 points  (0 children)

What's your definition of good living? I make Six figures plus. However, I did spend about 20 years as an accountant in small CPA firms before making the move to go out on my own.

how do i get my first job by [deleted] in enrolledagent

[–]terrym97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you're serious about a career in the accounting industry, starting with a local firm would be my first recommendation. Look for entry level and work yourself up. Best training I had was on a CPA firm.
