I both regret and appreciate my accounting degree every single hour
I graduated with an accounting degree and somehow ended up in medical device sales for the first 6 years of my career. I ended up going back for my masters in taxation (WTF) and eventually passed the CPA exam. Worked for a fortune 100 for a 4 years then went out on my own. If I would have ended up at a big 4 directly out of college, I probably would have quit and went a different direction. Private practice can be whatever you make of it, I could never go back.
With that said, almost 75% of CPA's and EA's are at retirement age. The demand for accountants is going to be huge in the coming years.

I just started my MBA and I am planning to focus on Accounting, but some of yall got me nervous lol. My degree is in Management but one thing or another led me to teaching math and I've been doing that for 6 years. Teaching is getting worse as yall can imagine so I wanted to go back for my MBA and figured accounting is a good route because I'm good with numbers and I have a background in business. I don't think I'm interested in going the CPA route, just probably try to work for a private company. Am I making a mistake? Should I look at other focuses for my MBA?
