So I followed up with several CPA's on this subject. One of which is a family member, has a MS in Tax, CPA, CFP, and is a L2 CFA Candidate, and is a Professor at a major university in Boston and a friend who is an auditor. The family member, who is now 44, said if he could take it all back he would have done the CFA program 20 some years ago. He has been a tax manager for several big companies (you would know them if I posted them but I am not going to in order to preserve his identity). My other CPA friend is an auditor and looking to get out of Audit ASAP because she spends more than half the year traveling. I'm going to stay put for now in my Equity Research shop and sit for the 2010 CFA level 1 in June. The way I see it, the CPA will always be there and I'm 22 so now is the time in my life to take a risk.
