Do you like puzzles, video games, and problem-solving? Have a knack for helping friends with math? Dream of owning your own business someday? The life of an accountant might be a great fit for you. Accountants work with people to help them fill out their tax forms. Though some people can do their taxes without help, many people who hire accountants say they're "worth the money" because they can often help clients save more money than they charge, as well as tons of time and stress. In fact, accountants love having the challenge of figuring out how to help their clients play by the tax rules while paying as little money as possible—it's basically like a giant puzzle. Also worth noting: Since taxes are due in April every year, accountants usually work around the clock in the spring, but get to take it easy every summer.
