If so.... :sitdown: I have a few questions.

  • Are you independent or working for a firm?
  • How decent is the pay? How do you handle benefits?
  • How do you deal with juggling multiple clients?

If you're not currently into consulting, have you given it any thought?

Training was in Los Angles for about month....got paid full salary during training + lots of perks

Bottom Line....it pays being educated

Where did you work? Did you take the CPA exam? How often did you travel? What were you doing at work while you weren't traveling? Why'd you stop after a year?
