A few decades ago... WOW I am that old! I started college and majored in accounting. My husband and I were so broke that we could no longer afford school for me and I stopped. Fast forward, 20+ years later, I have received my degree in accounting and I am super stoked that the CPA exams are up next! If you love it, you love it!

When it’s yours nothing or no one can stand in your way! So glad you pushed forward and finished because I’m sure it was not easy.

Literally the reason why I majored in accounting was because I wanted to run a business

Wow so cool you went to VCU. I went to Radford University and just graduated with my accounting degree. I have a full time job at a Big Four firm this fall and a little nervous about it! Maybe you could do a video about tips and what to expect as a new hire at an accounting firm?

Hi Jackie! I had some friends that went to Radford (party school 😊). I have a video on what to expect as an intern and also 5 things I wish I know before starting I’m accounting. These will probably be helpful. Congratulations on the big 4!

when you talk about accounting, it is very broad. What kinds of accounting are you directly talking about?

Accounting is so hard and boring for me even that I know it's a great degree to have. I'm majoring in business administration and will specialize in Banking and Finance.

Very good! Very informative.
