Management accounting roles allow more "flare", I have been a Director of finance in a school location which allows a broader perspective. You need to go through the ranks but there are different types of roles. The more routine roles in finance are the ones most at risk from computerisation. With finance being my third career choice through my working life I would also say that although the work is hard and quite often long as you get promoted, other careers that look easy from the outside can be just if not harder from the inside.
Great Insights Craigo, it's so true that Careers in Accounting and Finance are demanding and so as the work. Really like how you overcame such and improved. I really appreciate your insights and how to become better. Your just an amazing mentor/leader with such, much appreciated🙌. Hope you have an amazing day Craigo!
Thanks man - really appreciate the kind words as always. I'm glad I inspire you in your own career! Thank you for the ongoing support - have a great day :)
Good to have you back Craigo! Very insightful video ☺️ maybe we could get a part 2 where you discuss how to combat these ‘cons’ in the profession? Using myself in the below example. I like tangible results, but would I prefer to build houses for others that can afford it? Or have a house built by others because I can afford it? If the first doesn’t result in the financial opportunity for the second then I would rather pursue a career where job security is high, Salary is above average, have a “work is work” mentality and do DIY building projects around the house in my spare time 😁 we are curious and creative creatures but we do not live in a free world, our interests / hobbies need to be funded (mostly) and chasing a job/career in an area of passion could actually result in a reduction of passion. How we use our spare time and handle our thoughts (good or bad) are key to surviving non-colourful careers. 😇 Sorry for the long comment 😅
What a thought provoking and intelligent comment! I completely agree with your conclusion on 'How we use our spare time and handle our thoughts (good or bad) are key to surviving non-colourful careers'. I like the idea of part 2, however I've noticed less appetite for content on the negative vs positive comment. Will be one i add to the list but not a priority!! Thanks for your comment, Craigo :)
I'm thinking about getting into this. Would be nice to have maybe some of the Pros to these Cons as obviously despite these, you're still doing it. And running a part time RUclips channel about it to boot! :D
Take a look at some of the other videos on my channel. Specifically I have posted a pros & cons video :) let’s me know what you think! Yes! It’s addictive & exciting really! 😅😂
Craigo i got a question. Recently again i sat f1 exam i got 98. I remember two question them didnt have correct answer. I think thats why i failed. I sent an email to them. I want to ask does cima have review. Let me knoe craigo. Cheers
Hello Craigo! I'm currently a CIMA student. I'm passionate in management Accounting rather than Finance Accounting so what about the higher study path I can choose after completing CIMA. Is it like to do Masters in Management Accounting or MBA 🤔 I just want some clarification..
Different countries have different approaches, here in the UK Masters are a waste of time. Get your CIMA/ACA/ACCA, and then utilise it and gain practical experience you need to progress. I've never understood peoples obsession to go to university, an expensive hobby with minimal benefits IMHO.

Not far wrong my friend Pete. Glad you found a successful career as an MA :)

Hello craigo do you mind to make a video about daily task in company? As always love your accouting & finance contents!
I'm planning a day in the life of a Finance Business Partner soon which will include this :)
Can you do a video how you progressed from trainee to qualified role and how did your role change ?
A very generic video! Anymore specific steer on what you’d like to see?
Plz make a video on programming/Python in accounting and finance.
Unfortunately I don't have any experience in programming & Python. I have no interest in it what so ever.
Craigo i got a question. Recently again i sat f1 exam i got 98. I remember two question them didnt have correct answer. I think thats why i failed. I sent an email to them. I want to ask does cima have review. Let me knoe craigo. Cheers
I’m afraid not mate, you’ll just have to resit & hope to pass next time!
Do you have any regrets about doing CIMA instead of ACCA?
Sometime I wish I could sign off accounts for added flexibility, but in reality I have no interest in it and therefore no regrets really, no.
@@CRAIGO10 thanks for the quick reply Craigo and keep up the great vids!
Thanks man - really appreciate it :)

Could you please make a video on how to write a CV
I'll add it onto the list although won't be top priority!
