Being a TurboTax Live Tax Expert is a great way to rapidly increase your tax return preparation skills, troubleshooting skills, people skills and research skills while helping people in all 50 states of America. During my 5 seasonal years and two full time years my 401(k) has hit six figures. Tax people can learn people skills. Empathetic people can learn tax. Many people fall in love with the challenge and the reward of helping real people. Flexible hours. No commute. Seasonal bonus.

Can I just sign up and then poach clients for my own practice? Asking for a friend.

Asssuming there is an extensive non compete you’d have to sign and it’s probably all recorded

Six figures in a 401(k) sounds impressive, but how much of that is really due to the job versus other factors like market growth? Flexible hours and no commute are awesome, but honestly this whole thing sounds a bit too good to be true. I’d be curious to hear about the day-to-day experience

70% employee contribution, $30% employer. The day to day experience? You get connected to tax payers, answer their questions, help them with tax preparation or do the tax preparation depending on the situation. People skills, tax skills, tax research skills, problem solving. It's not too good to be true. It's challenging and rewording. It's all about taking care of one taxpayer at a time. How happy is that person after you helped them? Did you fix their problem. It's as easy and as hard as that.

Did you use chat gpt to write this post?

What do you mean by making that comment. No judgement, I just want to know. No, I did not use ChatGPT to write my review. I think my review gives the best description of working at TurboTax as a tax expert. In my opinion you can get a lot out of it. You get out of it, what you put into it. Same as anything.

What does a person do who doesn’t find any industry accounting jobs interesting? I’ve been trying to leave for 3-4 years and the only thing that interests me is people focused roles such as sales.

Public accounting is a decent spot for me but I’m wanting a more consistent schedule of 40-50 and the self centered/dog eat dog culture of my firm continues to crush my soul more and more the longer I stay.

I have an estranged relationship with my sister. I haven’t had a relationship with her in 13+ years, and haven’t even seen her in about 5 years. We had a really bad falling out and I never really carried for her as a person. But for some reason I feel an immense guilt for not wanting a relationship, simply because of this convoluted idea of family and sticking together no matter what. Anyone else have this issue? How do I go about making peace with someone I don’t want nothing to do with?
