— Starting in December, eligible men in the U.S. will be automatically registered for the military draft. Currently, men aged 18 to 26 are required to register through the Selective Service System online or at the DMV. But at the end of 2026 that changes as part of a measure tucked into the annual defense policy bill Congress passed and President Trump signed into law last year. DD: The more likely that you might be drafted, the less likely that you will be hired.

(FROM THE ARTICLE: GOP candidate for lieutenant governor Aaron Del Mar said it’s important to support the Constitution and a free press, but taxpayer dollars should not support outlets like some in Chicago that only show one side of issues. “A lot of these not-for-profit organizations are taking positions. They are reporting the news, not independently, but with a bit of a shadow depending on what their political beliefs are,” Del Mar told The Center Square.)

TARGET JOBS
— All the Big 4 firms have made significant changes to their academic entry requirements in recent years, giving hope to students whose applications in previous years would not have got through initial screening. How will these changes affect your chances of getting employed by EY, Deloitte, KPMG or PwC? DD: Your decisions a) to earn a college degree, b) to select the college to earn it from, and c) to select your major are all extremely important. I regret my not majoring in accounting from the beginning. I did not start taking graduate evening accounting courses until I was 27. I did not take the CPA examination and pass it on my first attempt until I was 30. I did not earn a master’s degree in accounting until I was 31. I did not take the Certified Internal Auditor examination and pass it on my first attempt until I was 32. I did not become a licensed CPA until I was 32. By then, because of my bad demographics, the accounting profession considered me to be too old to have a successful career in accounting.
