With no offense to the creators of the REG book I just ripped up…

    I used some of the pages as wrapping paper… My parents anniversary’s around now and I wanted to give them the present that I passed the CPA exams. So I ripped out a bunch of pages from the REG book and ripped them up and used them to wrap a small cardboard box. Then I used more pages to stuff the box. I took a piece of paper and wrote in tiny letters in the middle that I passed the CPA exams. I folded that paper up and stuffed it into a tiny jewelry box I found lying around here somewhere. I wrapped the jewelry box in another crumpled REG paper and stuck it in the middle of the crumpled REG papers in the cardboard box covered with REG papers. (I used REG because for some reason that’s the only book I have that I didn’t shove into a cabinet that I can’t reach without a stepladder).

    Then…I closed the box. I ripped out another REG page and cut it into long strips and proceeded to make a sort of bow out of folding and taping the long strips. I put the bow on top of the cardboard box covered with REG papers.

    I’m thinking I should have gone into some sort of arts n’ crafts career instead of Accounting.

    My present is ready.

    But I don’t know if I passed yet 🙂

    Haha, I've been planning on doing the same thing with my books when I finish

    Maybe I should do different things with each book and see which feels more satisfying. Burn FAR, rip AUD up page by page, use REG for kitty litter, and stab the hell out of BEC

    For those who are going to burn their books, please put it on youtube and title it appropriately. That would be funny to watch and you'll get some views.

    BOLD move! I still have my REG book (actually ended to like it).

    Wish you luck and hope you passed REG!

That would be a hit on Ytube: “Stone-age CPAs finding new source of energy – the REG book”

    DONE!

    Thanks, zooyuka! WOW, that was the real thing!!! I still feel sorry for the REG & BEC books (couldn't tell if AUD & FAR books were burnt too). Fire+guns = poor Becker. “I love you but I don't want see you again.”

    DONE!

    Inspirational stuff 😀

    But I can't burn my books. They are history!

    And there's so much art in them — middle fingers drawn next to some questions, smileys, happy percentages 😛

    @Acct,

    Thanks 😀 I told my dad that I wanted to burn/rip the Becker materials, he said “No, you never know when you need them again.” So my dad saved their (Becker materials) life 😛
