Analysts ENTP

Smart and curious thinkers who cannot resist an intellectual challenge.

'Good stuff. I used cpa excel to study and basically tried to learn a little bit about every sub topic - you can't get too bogged down in the details...if you catch yourself getting bogged down, look...

I'm not too familiar with bands, but it looks like an LLC is a good structure. If I was going to pay the fees to set one up though, I'd just go ahead and create an S-corp as that is more formal and...

I think you guys all have a very traditional view of what the game entails. 40 messages on OkCupid? Dude, I try and get the number as soon as she shows a decent amount of interest (usually after...

If it wasn't for my dad's motivation, I wouldn't be doing it. I'm pretty sure he's close to being an ENTP as well (less extroverted and maybe not as perceptive as me though). His perception of...

Dude who said that never worked? People in the pickup artist community swear by going in direct - with good delivery, a smile and body language, saying something to that effect WILL work...

Depends. I'd generally do an s-corp if there's anything that presents risk (i.e. customers coming after you). Yes, you need to report gains from bartering. Of course, if it is a like-kind...

^^ haha. This is what I'd let our tax team deal with. Just for fun, I'd assume you'd recognize what ever gain/loss you experienced from the liquidating dividend. Don't have the slightest idea of...

I'd venture a guess and say that ENTPs who don't apply themselves are fully aware of it and become extremely self-depreciating as sort of a defense from the judgement of others. There sob story is...

you should check this out - watch it all the way through because she hits exactly on your insecurity: Amy Cuddy: Your body language shapes who you are | Video on TED.com Edit: I can relate...

I recently moved back in with my parents, working a lot and studying to pass the CPA exam when I'm not working. My social life is near zero at the moment. It was painful at first, but I've gotten...

Yes, ughhhh its so difficult. Currently I'm trying to pass the CPA exam (half way done), trying to commit to meditation, working out in the mornings before work (I'm not a morning person), and...

So as I begin my third year as a working professional, I've developed a financial plan for aggressive savings (moved back in with parents, 10 yr old car - no car payment, no debt, no GF, outdated...

PM'd you ^^^

I wouldn't suggest anyone go through 5 years of school and study for the CPA exam just to get an entry level position as an auditor, making 55K through 50-60hr weeks at 30+ years of age with kids. ...

My fam celebrates christmas which, as an 18-21 year-old, I grew tired of. Now I'm somewhat over myself and enjoy it for what it is. Also, its really the only time during the winter when people...

You mention having 15 years of experience in a field - couldn't you go into consulting? Also, what's making your job less lucrative (and what profession do you have if you don't mind sharing)? Is...

This guy's having mental breakdowns because he hasn't combined illegal drugs with sex like all the cool kids - its obvious he's going down the wrong path. My brash response was deliberate.

Try looking in places where intelligent men frequent. If you're really in a league of your own, why don't you do something more fulfilling like medical research? Seriously...why waste your time...

Quit over reacting. Celibacy is not the bane of an ENTP's existence. If its that bad, going to the gym and paying attention in class may help (your grammar is horrible). I think you need...

Hey guys, I am interested in knowing if any of you have been in a rage-filled fight. Me? I always walk away/apologize when things escalate (100% success rate). This is mostly because I don't...

I actually find double entry to be fascinating - its such a simple concept and it allows you to break complex transactions and adjustments down. I suppose its annoying/difficult to learn at first,...

No; first, I think everyone changes and develops. Why? because its guaranteed that their environment will change and require them to adapt. However, If you meant this more in terms of the higher...

6-17 - automotive engineer 18-19 - business guy 20-22 - CPA 23/now - entrepreneur/consultant

I agree with the philosophy (but we all know that outgoing college students don't create the jobs available). There are documentaries explaining how corporations turned 3rd world countries into...

haha wow, i'm surprised people found this thread and bumped it after so long. First, I'm glad you're expressing yourself on these issues you're trying to deal with - its therapeutic and will...

Quoted for truth. edit: here's a cheesy video. although, the message is pretty good. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hzBCI13rJmA&feature=player_embedded

Sounds like an interesting project. The fact that you committed to a project for 2 years is quite impressive and speaks volumes about you. You're ultimately living life - its the risk we take when...

Wow...I'm totally discovering my Fi now that I'm out in the real world, single and put under tremendous pressure at work. I had no idea what love was when I was in college and constantly adored by...

Public auditing is a service that certified public accountants perform for corporations. If a corporation is publicly traded (i.e. on the stock market), it's required to have an independent auditor...

Every profession will be a challenge. There's no easy way to a successful career. I, too, wish there was a way to be lazy, show a few hours of my brilliance, amaze people, get paid and chill the...

Sounds like falling head over heels. I sorta get that way with love interests sometimes. I'm aware of how illogical it is but also like to indulge in the feeling - especially when its reciprocated....

I was wondering how you all liked the profession and work. Supposedly its a good fit for our type.

I'm about 2 weeks away from completing a solid year as an auditor for a small public accounting firm. I was probably my most dedicated to the job at the 7 month marker and broke down at the 11 month...

While I completely agree on all your points - she needs to take a chance. If theres any time for heart break, its when youre young.

1. You are: slightly dominant. ideal partner would be nuetral/sub 2. foreplay beginning at dinner - making love eyes, whispering terms of endearment in her ear while tracing her hips. lots of...

Accounting aint so bad. work hard doing tendious boring things your first few years and get certified. opportunities to do all kinds of interesting things will arise.

To be honest...its hit or miss, haha. Sometimes I'm spot on. Other times, I'm way off base. It takes probably a good 15 minute conversation on more obscure topics/a battle of wit (like personal...

I dont really do this to people who show a genuine interest in knowing me since I feel its belittling to them. Unless, of course, one of the first questions they ask is what I do for a living, haha.

It makes perfect sense. As extraverts, thinkers and perceptionists, we can become overly sensitive to judgement and reactions. The sooner we break free from this and build our confidence, the...

This is why you are an extravert. I, too, get annoyed by the venues that night life has to offer. So much so, that i went through a small depression because I isolated myself from it during this...

Come to think about it - this is on the initial first time or two of hanging out. At some point I'll end up making an effort to talk to the person...but its usually really dry and safe topics -...

perfrect example of why we are too smart for their own good. haha. you know how I know how you're an ENTP? lol

Holy smokes - I feel the exact same way. There's something about a person's gaze that seems to give insight into how smart/aware/perceiving they can be - I usually equate that with intelligence. ...

thats a great point. I have the same exact issue with one of my coworkers who seems to get really frustrated with me not remembering specific details on 20 seconds of a 5 minute conversation on...

haha. I feel like such a loser when people walk in on me saying sh1t. always a good time, haha.

Yup. Definitely see eye to eye about analyzing people and saying things to trigger my desired responses and behaviors. If people dont understand, they give me some funny looks when I talk about...

Got into the pickup artist community so I go out with a wing or two and hit on girls and analyze my game all night.

I only read halfway through my favorite book in highschool (1984), haha. I've completed projects on my car - but thats because its my only car and I need to use it to get to work the next day. I...

Hire a good attorney, haha. Branch swing to some fine young admin assistant woman so you can file MFJ and effectively lower your tax bracket since she wont be pulling in much. Tax isn't my focus,...

Not sure what the situation is. but if your buddy has no clue, dont tell him. If hes heart broken over her, hes still possessive of her. and by you essentially telling him that you indirectly caused...'
