I suppose the "entry level" terminology could mean people "moving up" in to these roles. I don't know how they would determine that though. There are several fields that are far from entry level e.g. plant manager, manager Financial planning, corporate controller. Plant manager seems the most ...

The idea is great, but it is also about marketing. For example, "sourced from xyz" and for most people they don't have a clue what xyz is, but it attempts to give validity and value to the product, but some times that source is located next to a landfill or refinery, and the majority of us are none ...

It's fairly simple supply and demand. The "excuses" for natural reduction of supply in the past are valid. 1. Do they artificially inflate prices with collision from suppliers before Easter? Absolutely 2. Do adverse weather conditions suppress supply? Yes 3. Do spillway conditions dictate supply...

When I had a wood burning oven, the ideal temp ranged from about 700-725 depending on how close to the fire the pizza was. Anything less than 650ish and it wasn't hot enough to create a great crust, and anything above 750, you had to rotate the hell out of it to keep crust from burning. 800+ was jus...

What do you want to do with your time? Spend time commuting to STF? Have your wife and kids closer to activities in the city or do more country activities? Does your family spend money on a lot of activities? Consider the variables of city vs rural living? $150k in baton rouge with 3 kids in private...

The first 10-15 year track for big 4 folks income I'd say almost certainly out paces the majority of industry accountants not coming from the top schools. But high perfromers in mid to major companies can get there as well with usually a good bit less wear and tear. MBA, CPA, CIA, CMA etc for indust...

If you're going all in locally, I'd go MBA at LSU and take accounting electives, spend another semester taking required accounting classes to sit for CPA. Macc is redundant with the CPA. It only may sense for those programs like UT that do the 5 year 150 hour program with a Macc at completion...IMO ...
