Certified Public Accountant (CPA) - (City withheld for privacy), Florida, United States
I've been a self employed CPA for 12 years and I am going to exit the profession. No appreciation by clients and the hours will take years off your life (80-100 hrs a week in Tax Season). Too many hours working weekends and holidays. Better choice is jobs in financial management.
