Rewarding yourself for passing scores?

    For each exam so far, my husband and I have picked a new restaurant to visit if I pass. For FAR, I rewarded myself with a meal at an Israeli restaurant in Philly. For REG, I got a meal at a Top Chef contestant’s new restaurant, also in Philly,

    Luckily, I will be enjoying a nice stuffed lobster (DH has never one!!) at my favorite Spanish restaurant in North Jersey very soon. 🙂

    What is your reward??? Does it help you get through the endless hours of studying?

    F- 7/13- 84
    R- 10/13- 79
    A- 11/13- 99
    B- 1/14- 86

    This exam ALMOST defeated me back in 2006-2008, but I came back and WON!

    Usually I go to a fast food place and order as much as I can eat.

    But now, since I”m completely done, I think I will splurge on all you can eat sushi.

    FAR - 84
    AUD - 94
    REG - 86
    BEC - 86

    Booze. And then some more booze.

    Typically normal stuff I like: Crown Royal, Patron. But when I pass the 4th and final part, I'll splurge and get some Johnnie Walker Blue.

    Licensed Florida CPA:
    B: 71, 73, 79
    A: 83
    R: 78 (expired), 77
    F: 74, 74, 80

    It's finally freaking over.

    When I pass, my best friend and I have a celebratory day.

    When I pass the last section we might splurge 🙂

    Beer. I pick up a 12-pack after I finish an exam or pass an exam. It lasts for like two weeks because I'm such a lightweight.

    I usually treat myself to a nice day at the Spa. Facial, Mani/Pedi, Seaweed Wrap and a massage! I'm getting ready to schedule now having passed my fourth and final exam. Audit is done. Now on to Ethics and then all that is left is to mail in the app and wait for the Certificate. Congrats to those who've passed and keep plugging away to those who are still fighting the good fight.
