    Accounting Sites

    Does anyone know of any good accounting forums you can go to? Thank you for any help. I especially need one for S Corp accounting. Also I'm looking for any online classes dealing with bookkeeping/accounting procedures for Corporations.

        Basic Rules for posing

        That's the first message you see when you click on that board. My first thought was this site is for pornographic material.

        In reading through the information - all you need to be is over age 13 to use it, and it is replete with spelling mistakes.

        If that's the quality of that site - I certainly don't need it as a source reference for tax information that's reliable.

          Speaking of spelling

          A sign down the street from my office on a new business,



          "GRANT OPENING TODAY"

          I have to stop in to see what the heck they are talking about.

                Making it up?

                Yes, I read your other post and I thank you for the compliment, although I think you're overstating the case and I'm pretty sure some posters feel that I, rather than my clients, am the PIB.

                I occasionally make use of "artistic license." I've checked out that term and it's (1) free (2) non-expiring (3) authorizes you to tell anything from a white lie to a whopper. But, to answer your question -- no; none of my stories are "made up." Everything posted has actually happened to real people; either to me or to my colleagues, friends, and/or clients. But I sometimes use the afore-mentioned "license" to blend two or more characters, change the names or exact locale, and combine several happenings or incidents for "dramatic effect" ("whoppers," my wife says).

                For instance, the sign that I just mentioned was actually two different signs and they once, but no longer, existed. "Sail" was a homemade, hand-painted, 4'X8' plywood sheet one block from my office. The "FLEE MARKET" board was six miles up the highway, hanging askew from a roadside stand. Large white letters against a deep red made it "jump out" at me as I drove by and, oddly, it appeared to be a professional work despite the misspelling. The combination of a desolate and abandoned structure -- weeds growing up through the weathered gray boards -- and the bright message declaring that the market had "fled" gave it a kind of "flavor," so I stopped and took a photo of it.

                  bb what is a PIB? What does it stand for?

                  You may be right about me overstating it a little, but h**l you make me laugh and I want more. Your little antecdotes(I know probably misspelled) are something I look forward to on this board.

                        That's correct and

                        your bringing it up has just given me an inspiration. I've got a client who perfectly fits and well-deserves that name, so therefore I'm christening him "Mr. Pibb" (like the soft drink) from this day forward. I don't what I'll have the extra "B" stand for, but I'll think of something.

                          How about "Pain in the Butt But I will do his work for the right price" Long description I know
                          Or just play on words and shorten it to " MR PIB"

                            Accounting Forums

                            Not sure as I haven't really visited often

                            http://accounting.com/ Not visited
                            http://www.accountantsworld.com/newforums/ their discussion groups aren't as friendly, but can be good info

                            Of course Quickbooks and Peachtree have their own forums as well. I have used both, but have only gleened limited info.

                            Also AIPB, and AICPA

                            so maybe these will help you.
