journey I don't really care what what what I do for extra I just want to get I
just want to get my blood movement I want to try to get some dog dopamine
rush try get a little sweat so I got you that today - the battery on the camera
is probably gonna die so I need to go I need to go to my office anyways and get
battery and some other stuff maybe a whiteboard and bring it home here I
don't know would that even be the same
anyways okay that's right that's a little lead-in I thought I thought it
would be nice to maybe possibly like go do a couple different segments of my day
main topic of the video being why didn't I want to be a CPA what led me to be a
CPA now this might be now this can be in the law this could be a long water a
short one there anyways what led me to be a CPA well I don't think I even heard
of a CPA before or had no idea about one or anything I didn't know anyone who was
a CPA or anybody's dad or friends parents or a friend you know I even know
what it was it was a nurse or something like RNA see clearly I didn't know so
we're gonna go back we're gonna go back to Eugene Oregon I was about 25 so like
2001 2002 Eugene Oregon we survived y2k water blessing but I was actually had a
Primus subline concert in Oakland we took I mean my buddy took the part over
there for why to fizzle y2k Wu sidetrack anyway so let me take you back to Eugene
about 2002 I had a girlfriend a girlfriend
sort of is it was her mom it was her mom who said
hey you're good with numbers you're smart we were thought about being a CPA
you should be a CPA so the first that was the first time since I was so I was
at the Community College Lane Community College in Oregon and I was just taking
general general business courses and so I got some of those done but then you
know I didn't get back around to going back to school like another six years
back here where I am now in Broward County Florida I went to BCC or BC but I
I was called by our Community College but they call it for our College now
because they have like one or two four-year degrees so anyways just bless
up right so is that the when I was back into the Broward College at 2000 2008 I
was like 31 or whatever I still thought well hey business I'm like I need her
for some reason I knew I understood business because I had always had
business I was always scheming since I was seven so I was like business and I
knew I knew that like you had to get a business degree before you be a CPA so I
really know much about it I just knew that like once I started looking into it
it was a very very CPAs fairly like exclusive designation there's only about
half a million give or take you know in in the u.s. half five hundred thousand
out of like 350 million people our CPA so it's exclusive and
so the girlfriend's mom put it in my ear or just got it in my head to be be CPA
and then it just kind of stuck with me and I wanted to pick something that I
thought was just so great like crazy for me like there's no way like I'm walking
into a community college at 31 and I'm gonna be a CPA like you like 500,000 in
America I like it's gonna take you it's gonna take you like six seven years or
just straight grinding you've never done anything in your life you know employed
all this stuff does a lot of self-doubt and brightest actually and that's that's
why I really just took a bunch of baby steps like it was just get my get my a a
degree from Community College like I really didn't think much more about that
like I just wanted that I mean I knew I wanted to be a CPA the whole time but it
was like and in trust me I didn't I didn't do my classes or my life that's
getting taken out because I do not like anything negative why did I be a CPA why
nice to be a CPA yes it is kind of I just have to be really hard but I guess
it is a little untraditional because you know everyone really says hey you don't
have to be a doctor or a lawyer I'm like I'm a CPA in there brah like there's
there's other prefer I'm sure there's you know there's tons of other
professions you know when our an architect or whatever you know well you
don't have to you know every mom wants their kid to grow up be a doctor or a
lawyer or you don't have to you know it's always doctor lawyer like those the
only two good jobs in the world so um although lawyer I think I'd be a good
lawyer just singing I don't know why I chose oh I know
the money I just heard it was like to be to be a lawyer like you got to go to law
school and that's really expensive and I wasn't really about that that's where I
pretty much that's what I like too but that's what I like about my CPA route
oh man I'm running out of battery all right so that's gonna be it for this I
gotta go with my life and I don't know when the next time we're gonna see you
it's gonna be way later in the day and I'm gonna have a fresh battery I'm gonna
have food I'm gonna taking care of my errands I'm gonna have worked out whoo
so it's 9:00 9:30 10:00 right now yo CPH drink back at it ooh just I did
just like I did say I did what I do I did some errands I went to the gym
shopped cook some food ate some food I just got I was getting really tired just
got a shower I'm feeling better so thinking about this this video why I
wanted to be a CPA and I guess I thought it could be you know I thought it'd be a
big challenge for me to be a CPA people like whenever I started looking into it
or telling people hey I want to be a CPA after my girlfriend's mother suggested I
be a CPA so that's the first time I really heard about it and everyone said
oh we have to be really smart you know it's really smart to do that and so I
thought well okay I'm smart I can so I can finally show people that I'm smart
okay great what else is involved and really uh what'd you hear about I think
or what I heard about or what I thought it would be was numbers you have to be
fast with numbers good with numbers love numbers which I had all three I was
always kind silly accounting money like when I was
six seven years old I would save upon my change and count it like every day you
know so I I was always I always loved like counting numbers always did good in
math I always did really good at math Intel they started doing like algebra
and calculus and stuff because there was like letters and that and I just kind of
understood at a fundamental level like buy low sell high like I just understood
business and just like how to get money and I was always you know trying to
think of ways to get money ever since I was like six seven years old so I had
the love of numbers I thought you know cuz in a lot of my a lot of my life it
was like you had to be fast you have to be fast on your feet with numbers you
know people are always like oh well how about how about this for this much money
and such so I was very fast on my feet with numbers like boom boom boom hey I
just see this cheer and shout up to the shirt man this hasn't been on the
channel for a long time I got this at Goodwill for like 250 a few years ago
it is a 4x until it was a little big on me or I guess it is me was it
I guess it kind of fit me okay when I was like I got it when I was like 280
290 so what what led me to be a CPA well I just heard about it for friends mom
soon excuse me he's like bless me or whatever I'm getting the devil out
that's why I had to sneeze I'm trying to be so positive and get the bad out of
there
what about being uh so I heard about it from yeah you know where I heard about
it from alright girlfriend's mom the more I looked into it the more
everything II had to be smarter to love numbers and be good with numbers and so
I thought I could I thought it would be a very good challenge for me I thought I
could do it I notice I was very well respected and the more the the farther I
went along the more I realized that it was a a well respected in the business
community designation you know I can pretty much go I can go anywhere in the
US any boardroom and you know tell them I'm a CPA and that's at least something
so I just make sure and keep my mouth closed because then they'll know I don't
really know anything it's just a joke I think I have I have a crazy good skill
set like you know but so yeah it's definitely long enough but that's why I
wanted to be as that's why I want to be a CPA it's how I got the idea it was
definitely the I would say that or growing this YouTube channel was like
the hardest or than like the most laser focused the most work I've ever put into
anything and so I can tell you that the CPAs and was so much hard work and when
I finally got my license it was so rewarding because all that hard work and
struggle and doubt and everything and so
yeah so that's why I wanted to be a CPA anyways till next time try to enjoy
yourself definitely be nice to people be nice to yourself as well because you're
you're a person you need to be nicer to yourself anything else please you know
