When people think all I do are tax returns and I'm like "No, I do estimates and extensions too. You're just not rich enough for that"

26 / M / $57k / LA

From what I've found online, $60k is about where AEs top out, can any account people confirm?

I look in my mailbox,
A lovely Surprise,
From the senior center,
A package has arrived

I unwrap the green sheets,
Then squeal with delight,
With financial statements,
The net income ties,

I then flip to the perms,
Starting with M&E,
My stomach starts growling,
So I move on hurriedly

What large penalty numbers,
These rule breaking folks,
A few fines here and there,
To them it's a joke

Book depreciation,
Less than tax I see,
DTL is created,
As favorable as can be
...

Hi! Pretty new to this concept, and really early within my career (only 3 months in). Currently on my company’s 401k plan, contributing well beyond the minimum to receive a match, and maxing the amount I can put in right now (25%). Dabbled a bit in options and stocks in general. Any advice, guides, or starting places you would give someone in my shoes? Thank you in advance!

I’m 25/F, recently came out to my mother as gay and she was not receptive. I decided to send a message to my father and sisters to tell them next, and got crickets. I have a wonderful girlfriend and was so excited to share it with them, and it hurts to not have their support. I feel lucky that I have wonderful friends who do support me though. Anyone have any advice for how I’m feeling now? 🥺♥️ At the very least, I’m proud of myself for coming out and being me. Just lonelier than I imagined.
