[quote=Anonymous]Job market is really hot for accountants right now, at least at senior staff/mid-level. Not sure for entry level. But you obviously need credentials for that. Sitting for the CPA exam requires around 30 (depends on the state) credits in accounting. Also, in order to "maximize" your career as an accountant, you would ideally need to spend a few years at Big 4, and I am guessing that it would be hard to break into that as a second career. And, regardless of the firm you start out in, being a junior audit staff means LONG hours for what could end up being pretty boring work. And, no offence, but saying that someone would be a good accountant because he does the household budget well is like saying that you would be a good doctor because you can clean out your kid's scraped knee and put a bandaid on it.
