Ironically, the public grade school was across the street from our home. My father almost always worked second jobs to pay the family’s bills. I had to work my way through college.

Dan Band to DuPage County for a powerful concert at Cantigny Park, hosted by the West Suburban Foundation for Disabled Veterans (WSFDV) as part of their Rockin’ For Our Vets event.

We extend our deepest thanks to the Gary Sinise Foundation, Cantigny Park, and Michelle Senatore, co-founder and president of WSFDV, for making this event possible. The DuPage County Sheriff’s Office was proud to stand behind this meaningful cause and be part of such a heartfelt community effort.

— Illinois State Police graduates largest cadet class in 25 years. The first 6 months that I worked for IRS as a Revenue Officer in 1971 was classroom training in the Loop. According to Google AI: key areas of Revenue Officer training include: “Tax Law and Procedures: This is fundamental, encompassing various aspects of tax law, regulations, and IRS procedures applicable to individuals and businesses. Business Law: Revenue officers may need to understand business law principles to navigate legal and financial situations encountered during their work. Investigative Techniques: They are trained in investigative methods to uncover discrepancies, errors, or potential fraud in tax filings. Collections Procedures: A significant part of the role involves working with taxpayers to discuss payment options and resolve delinquent tax accounts, according to ZipRecruiter. Training covers various collection strategies and techniques. Negotiation and Communication: Since they interact with taxpayers to discuss sensitive financial matters, revenue officers must possess strong negotiation and communication skills, says ZipRecruiter. Training often focuses on developing these interpersonal abilities. Ongoing Development: Revenue officers are expected to engage in continuous learning to stay abreast of changes in tax laws and regulations, industry trends, and best practices. In essence, IRS revenue officer training prepares individuals to effectively apply tax law, investigate tax-related issues, negotiate with taxpayers, and collect delinquent taxes in a professional and ethical manner.” In today’s dollars, my salary was $55,850/year.

That motivated me to earn a) a job-related bachelor’s degree, b) three job-related master’s degrees, c) six job-related professional certifications, and d) a job-related professional license.

More than 74,000 individuals sat for the CPA exam last year, but only 11 met the criteria to receive the prestigious Elijah Watt Sells Award from the AICPA and NASBA. Politics is nasty/vicious. I passed the CPA examination on my first attempt. Only about 20% who take the examination can say that. But my critics/opponents stress that others got better scores than I did. Very few CPAs become licensed CPAs. But I did.
