    Accounting

    As turtle said, there is still a shortage of 'skilled' accountants in Australia, despite your perception of many graduates. Also seremify - I think some of the Big4 do offer graduates a position in Forensic, but it's only like 1 or 2 places offered every year

    Tax

    Unfortunately you cannot claim transport costs to and from your place of work as tax deductions (ie, petrol, public transport etc). You can only claim transport costs if they were "incidental and relevant" to the performance of your job (ie, you are courier, or a pizza delivery driver)

    Racecourse? How do we get there?

    If all else fails, run. I remember I had a QMB final exam at randwick a few years ago which I was late to. As a last resort I caught an 891 from central and ran all the way down the hill to the exam (missed 5 mins of reading time)

    SAM and Premium Membership

    I don't want to strike a nerve or anything, but have you considered signing up for premium membership? I mean if the advanced SAM features are really important for you, I think you should consider making the investment.

    Masters of commerce (unsw)

    I think the MFin is more of a specialised program for professionals working in the finance sector...like professionals who get MBA's when they become managers

    accounting/finance salaries

    I think I'll stick to auditing for the next 10 years, the thought of 100 hour+ weeks and no social life/time for yourself just turns me off completely

    Masters of commerce (unsw)

    Yeah, as phrred said, $20k for the whole program (1.5 yrs fulltime) Can be reduced through exemptions (ie if you've done BCom, you can get all the introductory subjects exempted I think - thus saving more money)

    America is rearing up to attack Iran...

    I don't get it though, Iran has a right, as a soverign nation, to enrich uranium for energy production. What's America's problem? Of course it's ok for Israel, China and India/Pakistan, not to mention America themselves, to have nuclear weapons, but not Iran?

    Lost Season 2 (Australian tv followers - no spoilers)

    I'm just being silly. The Hurley love interest thing has been shown in the US last week, so don't check the other thread :)

    accounting/finance salaries

    I guess it should come down to personal preference, if the money is similar per hour. The experience, the status, the challenge of an IB, or the mundane, relatively relaxed work of an accounting firm.

    accounting/finance salaries

    But don't you work more in Ibanking? I've been talking to people that work 100 hour weeks, and when you do the maths, Ibankers don't earn that much more per hour (if we are simply talking about money here)

    Masters of commerce (unsw)

    It's about $20,000 I think (from memory, reading the Good Uni's Guide Postgrad Edition) Specialisations in the MCom: Accounting Accounting School of Accounting Strategic Value Management School of Accounting Finance Finance School of Banking and Finance...

    America is rearing up to attack Iran...

    http://www.iranbodycount.org/ That seems like a well researched document on the consequences of war against Iran. Unfortunately, if US do strike Iran, there will be much more terrorist attacks against the West.
