    So…if you are a marketing genius, or aspiring to be one, you would want to work at Facebook, Uber, Airbnb, etc. If you are into logistics, supply chain, and marketing, you would want to work at Amazon. If you are a tech person, you would want to be at Microsoft or Google. These are just non-mutually exclusive examples.

    If you are CPA, what’s the greatest job in the world? And how would you tailor your resume for such a job?

    It was FBI agents who took down Al Capone…for income tax evasion. I heard it a million times. I am sure the people who took down Bernie Madoff were proud and happy. I am sure, on some level, Sherrin Watkins had somewhat good intentions when she ratted out her own bosses…but are we really just doomed to be nerds forever guys?

    @Last Chance CPA I can deal with that. At least we have personalities, unlike the actuaries.

    What I'm tired of is how often accountants are killed on TV. Every time it's a middle aged guy that gets murdered on a cop drama TV show it's like “Bernie was just a simple accountant. He did his work and never raised a fuss.”

    @JohnWayneIsGod Love the username.

    As for the answer, the best job I would think is to be a college professor. Work 3-4 days a week and finished. And CPA's with PhD's start off at 150k a year.

    CFO of a company in the industry of your interest or starting your own company. I have just over 5-6 audit/tax busy seasons under my belt, CFO is an easy job. Everyone already does the work for you, and as far as cash management, you have templates you can use to determine your monthly, weekly, or even daily finanical position.

    The toughest part about being CFO would probably be keeping up with the industry and managing risk. But that's the FUN stuff!

    CFO of a financially-successful privately-held company so I can focus on the business instead of regulations written by some 笨天生的一堆肉。with no clue how to run a for-profit company.
