#58 Proper Accounting

Okay, well I didn’t become an accountant or anything, but I think I can say with some confidence that I understand accounting a lot better than when I wrote that goal.

I was thrown into learning how to manage finances for a business and learning the ins and out of the business was really the key in me understanding how the finances worked. Which took me a couple years to fully grasp and once I got that the books for the business became way easier to understand. Understanding a business is super helpful when you are learning how to bookkeep if you never really were a book keeper. There were things I didn’t understand and as I’ve grown up things started clicking more and stuff that’s obvious to me now were completely unknown to me like 4 years ago.

So I am not an accountant of any type, but I can do some book keeping and keep up with my taxes and financials pretty well and that seems like a solid life skill attained.
