re: The Flat Tax

Who here is a CPA that does absolutely nothing with taxes yet constantly gets tax questions from friends and family and is assumed to be very busy until April 15? I don't know how many times I have explained to people that while I am a CPA, I had one tax class ever and have not had anything to do with taxes since then. Yet like clock work, I get those tax questions every year.

This is the only reason I even remotely keep up with tax law. Hell, I think it took my wife several years to understand that I don't do tax work and to quit telling people I could probably answer their questions . "No...I can tell you how I think the rules would apply to your situation with my knowledge of how tax law works, but you should consult a tax accountant".

Same thing for attorneys.
