Why do you need money?
live a more comfortable life
rent is expensive in my city, want a job that i can afford a nicer place to live
a very small portion of new grads are making 200k starting, do you think you'd make that cut?
>CS grads are making 200k+ starting
only the top 3%
the average cs grad is making less than 70k
Idiot. Accounting is the thinking man's choice. Would you rather know a 2000 year old skill that can be applied to literally any business in the entire world or how to write fucking javascript and python? Without accounting there is no need for programming in the business world. All you need to know about programming is enough to tell other people what you want made.
Cute whore.
Yeah most are making much much less.
she a cutie uwu

if this guy can make 100k+/yr, i think i can too
accounting is not difficult though, anyone can do it. python and JS make more money too
partners at my big4 firm start out making 150k, that's 10-15 years down the line to make 150k
after 20-30 years some are getting paid 7 figures (if they have big clients), but it's rare
