Hi - I currently work in corporate finance / industry from a LDP and have a great day job (stemming from a top 20 MBA). I moonlight and do freelance bookkeeping / accounting / fractional CFO work to supplement income + I like a small business view in addition to my corporate / fortune 50 role. It looks like there are opportunities to get higher paying gigs for less time if I have a CPA. Is it worth getting a CPA for my freelancing if I already have an MBA + industry day job?
