[VN Boards Archive]

Welcome to the Vault Network forum archive.

This is not a complete archive, time didn't allot us the opportunity to properly backup the majority of the boards deemed "expendable". Most boards on this list have at least 20-40 pages archived (non-logged in pages, 15 topics per page).

Popular boards may have as many as 250 pages archived at 50 topics per page, while others deemed of historical signifigance may be archived in their entirety.

We may not agree with how the board shutdown was managed, but we've done what we could to preserve some of its history in lieu of that.

Please enjoy the archive.

Topic: My Sales Pitch To Be an Accounting Major

	This job requires some aptitude for tedium. It also requires an ability to do a lot of arithmetic , some statistics. The reward is a job which will open many doors. I have stated before a tried and true ticket to the FBI is by being a CPA. The economy can be in the crapper, but your skills are always useful. An accountant is a swiss army knife tool in business. If you are artful enough , you can create a lifestyle like mine. You are your own boss and you use your other life skills to develop a practice consistent with what you enjoy. Over 65% of my clients are in the entertainment industry or independent artists or musicians. There is one guy on this board, who helped me build this practice from nothing- Seething. He is a man among men in my eyes. Anyway, even if you dont pass the CPA exam, you can become an enrolled agent and prepare tax returns or become a book keeper and earn $35.00 an hour working for yourself with low overhead. Think about this if you are looking for direction and have the right skills. -----signature----- "What is here is there. What is not here is nowhere." Vishvasara Tantra "Ever tried, Ever Failed.

	Chapter 1: The bedraggled man stumbled up to the makeshift gate and pounded to be let in. An armed woman (Rosaria?) peered down from above, weapon focussed on Modeebs' chest. "What skills have you?" she demanded. "I can paint, write strange poetry and can balance your books you sweet lady!" he responded. The gates opened wide, and Modeeb entered. -----signature----- People in the Middle-East: They Are ALL Crazy as BedBugs!!!

	It is not an easy job. Even base accounting has a lot of people failing. -----signature----- There are three kind of liberals; Stupid, ignorant or evil The result is always evil but the intent is not always evil.
