Is accounting a good career path (8 years of studies to be a specialist in my country) ?
Is opening an accounting cabinet viable in your opinion ?

I have 2 years already checked and the last 3 years are in internship so you’re still paid.
Once you get out you have a doctorate and salary mog everyone tho

I'm temporarily in Bulgaria rn (born here). I recently returned from an accounting internship on the Isle of Man. I'm studying ACCA (UK, Ireland, IOM, Channel Islands, Canada system). It takes 7 years

Will be 100% replaced by AI within the coming few years so no lol

If ur expert u give advice to the companies so there is clearly human contact.
Legislations are different among countries.
From what I’ve seen online it’s safer from AI that many other jobs

 

[eduardkoopman]

It's not bad, it's not great. It's decent to good though, imo. Compared to other works.

Upsides are:
* potential for good salary and business connections, and therefore business opportunities later on.
* indoor office environment that is not very stressing on the body and so on. Especially if one invests in standing desk , bicycle desk, walking desk. So one doesn't spend 10 hours per day on a cuck sedationairy chair.
* work from home

Downsides:
* stupid culture of working alot of overtime in office, during some cope deadline seasons.
* gay office politics.
* seen as a soyboy, beta buxx, category job. So not good status.

I think because its law and numbers AI will be able to deal with it really easily. Maybe you can work with somehow using AI for accounting but honestly if its gonna take you a long time to study for then you'll probably be fucked by that time. It's hard to know what jobs wont get fucked tho. But I'd probably pick something more human if I was you

There is actually a lot of human contact

I agree on this assessment.
Ai still sucks big time, in this field. Useless. I tried it.
Only thing that will fully be ai, and largely is already digital automation maxxed. Is the bookkeeping activity.
Buy that an accountant ain't doing anyways anymore, these days.

It depends on the lvl of qualification but if u do 8 years u give insight for the director of the company and you also work with his banker

Depends a bit on the field. But there is more human contactcthan most expect

Outdated view of accountant work.
All is automated mostly. No bookkeeping and calculator shit is done much anymore.

One is mostly busy with making the shit companies do, fit with legal shit and accounting rules. And giving advice.

What’s your take on launching one’s cabinet at some point ?

 

[eduardkoopman]

What’s your take on launching one’s cabinet at some point ?

Cabinet?
You mean ones own accounting office?

 

[AlexBrown84]

yes if you start your own practice after a few years and get interesting clients or do niche things related to the field

no if you work for cucky company who’s most exciting thing all year is filing other people’s tax returns

 

[Pierrot]

Yeah dunno how u say it in english exactly

Years

English is also a 2nd language for me.

Starting ones own accounting office?
imo.

1. It can be decent. If one let's oneself be hired "freelance " by bigger accounting firms, in need of temporary account. One needs a good network.
2. It can be good. If one has a niche selling point skill, they come to you for to your office.
3. Being a 1-man show accountant, with it's own small companies customers. This is imo challenging. Probably not a good idea.
4. Building an accountant firm of size with employees, can be good or bad. Depending on ones entrepreneur skills. The salary cost will be the challenging part of such business.

Super ça

Compta je sais pas si t’en a déjà fait mais c’est super répétitif et ça demande pas vraiment de talent, la plupart des comptables sont des gens qui n’ont aucune passion dans leur vie ou alors des immigrés qui taffent dur

Merci
Je suis d’accord avec ce que tu dis pour la comptabilité basique mais beaucoup disent que quand tu fais 8 ans d’étude et devient expert-comptable, c’est plus du conseil que de la comptabilité tout court et donc que c’est beaucoup plus intéressant et enrichissant.
Tu fais un master de quoi ?

this is kind of false as one can see many HTNs/Chads working finance related jobs especially in wealthier capitals.

go for a stroll in richer neighborhoods and you will see all the new money bankers, accountants and such blooming with health and youth

that one I posted, might be a bit outdated-ish view.
accoutants/office workers; in th past at least. Were notoriously skinny/skinny-fat build, with zero muscle mass, looking like a bunch of weaklings. Hence they soy/beta label.
