I’m still not a CPA.
BEC kicked my butt again and I lost all my credits back in
2012. I seriously hate BEC. If BEC could be slapped across the face, I would
give it a firm backhand.
I’m still not a CPA. And I don’t care.
Well, that’s a lie. It does bother me sometimes. But for
those of you like me out there, there is hope. I rose pretty high up in the corporate
accounting world despite the lack of a license. It’s funny; some people care a
whole lot about that piece of paper, but I’ve found most people valued my
unique work experience more. So it did pay off to take on projects that other
people didn’t want because they were a disaster to clean up, learn some SQL or
had you working extremely late. I like a good challenge!
I like to say I’m a CPA twice since I failed by one point and
lost the other 3 credits 2 times! Yes, TWO times. No wonder I was not in a rush
to re-take it!
I actually did buy those lovely Wiley CPA Review books a few
times since 2012 in an admirable attempt to start over. However, each time,
work and life got in the way, and the books are sitting in a pile on the floor
of my home office. The leaning tower of CPA review books…
I’m not sure what I want to do about the Exam right now, but
I missed my blog and the CPA Exam blogging community. So here I am again. I had
to update a few Amazon links on the blog, so I put up some BEC products on the
sidebar as a joke to motivate me to start studying again. Ugh, those purple books are mocking me…
How has everyone been? Hopefully, most of the people who
used to read my blog have passed the Exam. I’m honestly happy for you if you
did ;-) . Join me anyway! I plan on writing about Accounting (fun!), Excel (yes!),
Cooking (yum!) and (maybe, just maybe) the CPA Exam.
