I actually did, I was a paralegal for the govenrment and went to the nonprofit world. I like it a lot better but I definitely took a pay cut. I do have better work life balance and am a lot happier now so it is a trade off I would make again.

Just speaking from my experience, the first thing I noticed was how much more relaxed it was. Now, don’t take that the wrong way, you still have a lot of responsibilities to meet and a lot of varied ones at that, but the culture was just a lot better. Pay cut absolutely, I went to a smaller non-profit and I get a lot of chances to do different things here.

Question: I have a client who started a restaurant. He leased the land and bought shipping containers where he spent money contracting out to turn them into bars. I’m having a tough time determining how to depreciate this! First thought was leasehold but he’s not making improvements to a structure...he owns the structure! But nonresidential real estate at 27.5 years doesn’t make sense either as it’s not a brick and mortar building. Curious on others thoughts! TIA
