Proper qualified accountants do some seriously hard training and qualifications. Beyond that they are people.

Accountants with a good reputation I would trust, they could save you a lot of money over time. Financial advisors are another thing. Mostly they work on a commission basis, what gives them the best commission is not necessarily the best product for you. They have to inform you of their commission before you agree, but watch out for ongoing annual charges a 0.5% annual charge does not seem much but its nearly £50 a month on a £100K pension pot.

Any profession is one where ordinary Joe gets screwed by those for whom our system is made.
Laws are made arcane ,for example,as many politians are barristers

I would say so, inc doctors, fire service, they all come with lifetime commitment which in those terms is a profession ?

Profession and vocation? Service is a calling I’d say, something folk are drawn to with an appeal above and beyond the financial.

An idea isn't responsible for those who believe in it.

Make no mistake,the vocation aspect ahs been killed and cremated and its ashes scattered on the field of political chicanery.

It is a profession as much as any of the usual referred to ones but far more respected.

Most polls put trust in Police higher than any of the so called professions with Solicitors ,not surprisingly,bottom of the list every time. Not for nothing are their fees astronomical Our system feed them all like pigs in a trough.

I do not know why they bother

Giving your lack of respect I don't really feel inclined to swing to your beat and I have answered not of the kind.

Accountants (Chartered, Certified and Management) have years of professional study and exams to get through. They are there to provide a professional service which they certainly charge for. It's just plain simple numbers and the way they are presented. Do they screw Joe, possibly but Joe wouldn't normally be getting an accountant to do anything.
How do we factor in the prices that tradesmen now have to charge. If we can't pay then we are going to get the Lawyers who are always going to win.

Im quite aware of what accountancy is about.My forst job was a trainee Cost and Works accountant. I lasted 2 years.Hated it.

Every businessman need a good accountant to avoid paying the tax us poor farkers have to.

Forgive me for not bowing down to them.

I could have included Architects but we had a Masonic thread on previous site that ended badly.

That was to distinguish between financial advisors and accountants. I worked as an accounts officer and trained as an accountant. A world of difference between. Auditing was the end of me hence my new job back then.

You're right about business and accountants. The difference between joe who pays tax an an employee and the business is phenomenal. Some things are right because Joe doesn't have the same costs as an employee but I can claim my sunglasses and my phone and my laptop, for example, where as Joe cannot.

I was self employed for a while Jase and it was a bit of a shock seeing how many tax bill could be diminished.
Daughter had to be taught by her accountant as to what to do to avoid tax.

And we go on about others -the rich-avoiding tax.

As Ive said,we are all hyocrites;it's simplt about degrees

I suppose it may be down to how we define hypocrits on the day.
Should we pay tax on money we are not liable for? Should there be a sliding paye tax scale? Joe shouldn't be paying 50% income tax if his income is 12500 and the rate is 0.
Some of the allowable expenses make me laugh in embarrassment and if we actually strip this subject till it is naked we can question validity hypocrisy motives intentions amongst other things. Do I trust accountants? Are they my favourite people? No
