re: CPA's of the OT

Credentials are generally always worth having, particularly when establishing yourself in a field (and trust me, your doing this for a long time in any field). It will always look good on a resume and is required to be the top guy in a lot of circumstances. So unless your plan is to be an accountant in a non public capacity, working for others, and usually not the boss, I assume it is worth it.

At least that is what my niece told me back before shoe became a stay at home mom. She passed all 4 parts of the exam her first try, didn't need it where she worked but it got her a bump in pay.

Good luck
