Great video! You highlighted key points that no one else mentioned. Thank you!

Thank you!

The officials who get kickbacks in return of false reports , the company must deal with those officials 🚫

Thank you, useful. I've recently accepted a commercial finance analyst role

tax planning. never heard of that, before. thanks!

It's hard for me to understand why you didn't ask questions about what specifically you needed to be doing. Youre supposed to ask questions and any manager who refuses to answer should be reported to their superior manager.

I would compare AI and outsourcing's impact as follows: 1) robotics automated mass-production assembly lines for cars 2) robotics will likely NEVER automate Formula One car construction In the first case, there is large demand and a many-years cycle of 'sameness' in the car. In the second case, the car is changing constantly and a lot of judgment, human cleverness, and creativity/risk taking are needed to constantly innovate and re-invent things. The mundane, tedious tasks can be done (maybe) by AI but even then, a human or two will need to assess the finished work to see if it's correct. And no regulatory body will ever accept "We relied on an AI LLM to create the documents, so, Mr. Regulator, you'll have to hold our AI system to account if there are errors/fraud." Humans to create new ideas, to assess accuracy of AI output, humans to stand for responsibility with the regulators. AI has limits.

What’s with the lesbian haircut Paul

Thanks that was very helpfull. How can I do the same thing for the Secondary Y-Axis as well? (on the same Chart)

My experience: underpaid beginner scam

Terrible job of making things simple and trying to explain what accountants do instead made it sound like accounting is for God's only and difficult don't like this video at all!

That was world class Paul, thanks!

Do you think AI will take over financial jobs ?

Great video

I want to do accounting for my father’s small company but we live in different countries. How can I do it online? How can I gather information?

Great content as usual except that it is not clear when you used the Vlookup to put additional columns of dates (months and Qs)

In the grey box above click on the word "more" at the very end. The grey box will expand and the VB code and the other forumlas referred to in the video are displayed. Don't thank me... found it by accident! 🙄

Thank you!

How do you do this also for the X axis?

Paul can you do this without VBA or macros. I do not have access to developer

very informative! Thanks for the research

thank you for the valuable information!!! I have been watching through your KZbin videos. do you think becoming an accountant need certain types of personalities? and do you think people without these personalities can be train to become a good accountant?

really like your delivery, thank you for the insights, really helps as someone trying to get into the industry

Amazing thanks a lot❤

Crazy how much this aligns with my experience. Literally exactly what I am currently going through.

ACCA FCCA

lol, i am on my 2 out of 3 client and have been getting attitude and no response. getting yelled at for not knowing how to do something and when i ask for coaching, they tell me to try it on my own and after i try it and do it wrong, i get spammed with the things i did wrong and that i need to be better. this video will hopefully help me understand ways to respond.

AI will make all accountants more efficient; hence, they will be capable of doing more work with the same effort, as part of their tasks will be automated. With a more efficient workforce, there will be fewer people needed on the market, and with fewer people needed, the competition for the job will be higher. In effect, the accountants, even though they become more efficient due to the implementation of AI tools, will be paid below the efficiency gain because of the job market competition. And you still need someone to be put to jail in case AI messes something up in taxes. You cannot put a computer into jail so I guess some positions are safe 😉

Great explanation on diving in to the commercial finance business partnering. I will be glad and very pleased if we can share more of these experiences. Thank you!

can you please share the excel file so we can practice along the video

Enjoyed it! Thank you

where's the code please?

Thank you for this valuable advice :)

I don't see the point of the cont/1 format, can't I just replace the minus with a bracket manually? Plus it's kind of confusing or hard to remember.

thanks alot man this was helpful

thanksss

Some things it’s good for but some things it’s really really bad

OMG. Finally. That 10th point. I've always wondered if I could do that. Finally i found out how.

It can give you excel formulas and VBA codes too

Watching this video after enrolling myself in accountancy 🥶💪(I didn't know what accountants did until this video)

Jeez, wait till this guy finds out about the dishwasher.

I just miss BFEs. Every firm should have PwC's finance system

if people say it’s easy wouldn’t it be fine starting out remote? or very high skill and hard that you need a ton of experience first. I see many say it’s close to impossible to start remote but I figured there’d be remote jobs (although very competitive to get)

You have really great playlists and videos but i only found you after hours of watching and i nearly didnt click on the playlist. Im commenting because its a brill playlist and I think that theres a few points to think about that may help you reach more people. I have been watching YT videos on AI, ChatGPT and Accounting, Finance, and Auditing for about 12/13 hours a day for the last couple of months as I make a huge Accounting related playlist and add in things like new tech, AI, and other cool tech and tools that I think would be interesting and play it as I revise, study or do chores. Still, it has taken 7 hours of straight watching directly relevant videos to stumble across your playlist, and I only clicked on it when my computer jumped and I lost my queue, but didnt want to spend ages making another. The reason I didnt initially add the playlist was for a few reasons: 1) You cant read the entire playlist name when it pops up in recommendations. All you see is "Career advice - finance analysts, pro..." so it didnt really explain the playlist contents well and the chatgpt thumbnail made me think the entire playlist was about chatgpt. 2) It is worth looking into SEO to make your videos more friendly to the algorithm 3) Maybe cleaning up some of the editing Keep up the good work though because your content is actually really good, so sell it like it!

The way you explain in a polite and slow placed manner is very helpful for students. Really greatful to found your channel sir.

Thanks can you make more such videos
