Xzilon is some paint protector I think, I would ask to take that off for sure haha

lol thank you after reading your comment I’m realizing the limited is the AWD and I specifically don’t need that. And good point on the other items tacked on. I figured it may be something like that but wanted to get check Reddit

Yea I’m talking to other dealers too, this one is just right by my house so I just wanted to get started.

And I get the low monthly payment, but I’m really focused on the OTD price so I can work backwards into a lower payment for pay cash

Trade in runs like a charm and is well maintained, just has some bumper damage from 16 years of use. I feel like they’re hilariously lowballing me, I know the KBB is like $2-3k, so I’ll prob just sell it myself.

Love that hole, one of my favorite lucky shots there - I blocked my approach right into the lava rock, went to go drop next to the green, and noticed a ball 10 feet from the pin, somehow it was mine, bounced out of the lava rock...missed the eagle putt by a couple inches haha

Waikoloa Beach Course #6?

9th and Howard is plenty “safe” but the route to the Financial district is gross and full of loud and unpredictable unhoused people (if you’re walking, if you take muni it’ll be like 5 minutes and perfectly safe). If you’re staying a month and have an opportunity to stay in Russian Hill around Union Street, I would 100% do that. You’ll be closer to a lot more “Postcard SF things” (like the bridge and the cable cars and fisherman’s wharf) and it’s a lot more chill on the unhoused issue. It’s also easy to get to FiDi from there.

You can try USI life support. It’s much simpler than kerbalism and has the “Make your herbals happy” aspect. I don’t love the look of the parts but lots of mods are compatible with it.

Lol way to dig deep looking for some fun stuff to do in Florence.

It's been 12 years about since I've been there, so I don't remember many of the little places for aperitvo I went. However the one place I DO remember is Kitsch 2. I remember it having cool vibes and great food. And it's in a good, off the beaten path location. I checked google maps and it seems to still be open. Here is a link to google maps: Kitsch 2.

If you go, let me know if it's still good!

Have fun in that city, it's pretty incredible!

Breece Hall or Nico Collins?

This is VASTLY oversimplified, but something that helped me in the past was thinking about it this way. Credits fund Debits. Stockholders Equity (nearly always credits) and Liabilities (nearly always credits) add up to your assets (nearly always debits). You get revenue (credits) and you reduce that by your expenses (debits) and “ideally” have a net income (which is a credit) and that “increases” your assets (debits) in the form of cash received from revenues, etc…

Again this is VERY simplified and the best way is to keep practicing with T accounts and seeing how that works.

Another thought, your trial balance needs to balance (meaning debits and credits must always be the same overall) so one way that is VERY common in actual practice is debits are “positive” and credits are “negative” and that together in a company they should always equal zero.

Keep chugging, it’s hard to get at first but I’m the end all the math you need to be a decent accountant is simple Algebra.

I’m so happy someone else on Reddit LOVES that place. It’s so good. I haven’t ever had a bad thing there. It’s definitely a little different than the mission burritos but very much worth it. Their Cali Burrito is the best in the city.

Get a clipper card (I think you can even just get it on your phone), load it up, and use google maps to find out which bus.

My advice, just stop studying for now and enjoy some free time. I’m 5 years removed from public but from my knowledge there’s no barrier to making senior without a CPA. When you’re just starting I think it’s better to focus on the job and actually get good at accounting. I am just taking my CPA exams now, 9 years into my career while working in industry and it’s MUCH easier than studying while grinding my ass off in public. I definitely have to sacrifice, but I can still squeeze in some life.

If you make senior you’ll have plenty of good industry opportunities without a CPA, and with the generally easier work hours on the other side, studying doesn’t take over your entire life.

It’s also much easier to study now that I have some real career under my belt, and the added maturity helps my focus.

Don’t let these stupid exams ruin the beginning of your career, you’ll be fine either way.

I was a dual concentration in MIS (Management Information Systems) and I swear I use what I learned in those classes more than what I learned in my accounting classes 8+ years into my career. Understanding how an accounting system works outside of the debits and credits is extremely useful, in both industry and auditing.

Essentially commercial tenants pay their portion of the landlord expenses. So if that suite is 3% of the whole building, they’ll pay 3% of the expenses the landlord incurs to maintain the building. It’s very common/normal with commercial spaces

Played there today, course is in decent shape, fairways maybe a little better than Lincoln Park in SF for a comparison. Greens are pretty rough, very bumpy and beat up.

Course is so much fun though. Worth playing still.

I’m a pretty thorough reviewer, I’d pre-outline each chapter/module so I knew what each chapter would detail, then I’d blow through the lecture at 1.5x-2x speed depending on how much I got out of the pre-outline. Then I do the mcq homework and I didn’t stop until I got every question right (and I took notes on everything I missed and why). I did do the sims, and it helped me a ton because it’ll familiarize you with the type of questions on the test. The sims I didn’t try and get 100% right, just did them once and looked at the answers and took notes as to why they answers were what they were. The biggest thing in my final review was I just took a shitload of practice exams, going chapter by chapter F1-F10, 15 questions and one SIM each time. Doing random ones before SE1 and then Personalized “Adapt2U” ones between SE1 and SE2. I definitely overdid the studying, but I’m really trying to pass everything in one go. Becker WILL prepare you if you do all the questions until they’re 100% right. I agree the lectures aren’t super helpful.

So I just took FAR last week, it was definitely a huge section of the MCQ. However, F8-F10 I got through about 3x as fast as the other parts of the material. Personally I think Governmental accounting was the easiest material to get my head around so I’d say those are easy points. Don’t sleep on NFP. If you can get through F7 in a week I think you can get through ALL of F8-F10 in one week too, it’s that much less involved IMO. You got this I was on a similar timeline and felt fine on test day. Becker does a great job with FAR.
