    macbook Vs macbook pro

    get the 2.0ghz intel duo (the new macs) they shit all over the old ones. the chip inside them is extremely good for what you pay. I sell these laptops 3 days a week at a store. the only differance is really the graphics card, the pro has a radeon x1600, which is a very nice card for a...

    Who reads "Finance Books"?

    Thanks for the tip, nice book "Preface to the Fourth Edition, by Warren E. Buffett I read the first edition of this book early in 1950, when I was nineteen. I thought then that it was by far the best book about investing ever written. I still think it is. To invest successfully over a...

    Dell Exploding Battery Recall

    haha, thats what you get for buying dell. they dont give a shit about quality, just care about piecing together some fugly brickish laptop with good specs so they look decent on ads but if you compared them side by side with the toshibas and asus and compaqs in a store they are all shite

    office 2004 for mac shit slow?

    CFO differences in countries

    CFO differences in countries

    I'm not getting the CFO position mixed up with the CEO position. You are getting Financial accounting mixed up with management accounting. You cant seem to get it through you're thick head that the position requires MORE THAN JUST KNOWLEDGE OF ACCOUNTING STANDARDS (financial accounting). of...

    CFO differences in countries

    no it doesnt, there is a very good reason why companies call it CFO and not chief accountant. Because an accountant does not necessarily know anything about finance, law or economics, which you conceded. I highly doubt this "keeping up to date with developments in the field of finance" would...

    CFO differences in countries

    sure, making sure standards comply is probably a little bit important, but dont insult me, i've been the CFO of a company, sure it was a small coffee sales one with 15 people, but preparing financial statements is only one aspect of the job. Take the CFO of macdonalds international. He's got...

    CFO differences in countries

    because they have bigger companies. When being a CFO management skills and general abilities are more important than knowing obscure accounting standards. I would say that being a CPA is very useless when you are a CFO. It merely gets you there.
