How does a profession revitalize itself when salaries haven't budged since 2007? In this episode, Blake and David examine the shocking reality that Big Four audit associates in Chicago earn the same salary range today as they did nearly two decades ago. They also explore why accounting's value proposition has stagnated in a world where financial statements fail to capture what truly matters to modern investors, and you'll hear their take on the IRS's plan to cut 50% of its workforce, Social Security's future, and the economic impact of tariffs—including a surprising clip from Ronald Reagan himself. Plus, learn how over 30 states are now advancing legislation to eliminate the 150-hour rule that has long been blamed for declining CPA candidates.SponsorsOnPay - http://accountingpodcast.promo/onpayBluevine - http://accountingpodcast.promo/bluevine (Bluevine is a financial technology company, not a bank.

Today's episode is an audio replay of a webinar I hosted last week, "Working Too Many Hours? The Solution is Easier Than You Think."In this session, I walk you through the solution to overworking, what's at stake if you solve (or don't solve) the problem, the money being left on the table, and the steps you need to take to start reducing your hours—without sacrificing revenue.Since this was a live webinar, there were visuals, but even without them, I think you'll get the full picture.I also talk about Peak Freedom, my community for EAs and CPAs who want to work fewer hours while maintaining profitability.
