Just curious about the range ages...I've seen a lot of younger peeps discussing undergrad courses and I'm starting to feel old. So what say you?

I'm 30...

I am 47. Trying to decide if I should pursue the CPA in 2012 or let it go. Undergrad is in accounting and have an MBA, but CPA has been a dream (or nightmare :-)) of mine for years.

23.
And I have to say I never thought I would actually go forward with getting my CPA. I was always a B-C kid in college and accounting wasn't my personal favorite but I have to say I am glad it is a requirement for my job so I HAVE to get it done now. I can't imagine studying later in life when I have kids and other large obligations, but power to those who are!

Happy Birthday MyLifeIsCPA! Hope you are relaxing today!

Just turned 22 - Very fresh out of college - I am also glad the CPA is required for my job, otherwise I probably would've waited a couple of years to start this process.

@ Mylife
Happy Birthday! <:o)

I'm 31. But my background is different -- I've been in the US for 4 years only.
I'd have gone after the CPA straight after college, if I were any of you guys :)

Finally a CPA :)

Wasn't there someone on the score release thread who was in his/her 60's?

Anyhow, age is just a number, and no one here is old!! I have a very youthful great-aunt who is much older in years but so young-spirited! Unfortunately her memory's not the same, though.

Just turned 30 in November. My wife cried on her 30th. Not me. Only difference was that I input a different age on the eliptical to track calories and heartrate. My zone for fatburn is lower! Definitely a perk. I love the 30's. I get a little more respect now that I'm in the club. Still have most of my hair and am looking forward to a little grey to start showing. Then it's on. No "Just for Men" for me. Bring on the hot dad look. Or something like that.

I'm 26. Still young! I'm not really worried about aging though. I feel better than I have in years. I'm in roller derby, I just bought a house, I'm getting married, and last but not least... I am a CPA! Life is good! Really looking forward to the next few years and seeing what adventures life throws my way... maybe a baby or two before I'm 30?? Who knows!

I got my BS in Accounting in 2007 when I was 22. It just took me a while to get my CPA.
