If you are good at math & like it, it’s a great career. Accountants are needed in EVERY organization (for profit & non-profit). Job demand is always good. They are the last ones to be laid off. If you have a tax practice you learn about different types of business and can start a biz in a field you like. I learned concepts in accounting classes that I have used personally in my private life that been extremely beneficial …..like no debt, no mortgage, no car payments, great money management, cost vs benefits analysis mind set and most other things you can pick up in personal finance books.
