CPA yay or nay?
 
I couldn't find a similar thread on this, so I thought I'd start my own. I've been thinking about going for a CPA (certified public accountant), in the somewhat-distant future. I figured there were probably pilots out there who have gotten their CPA or seriously considered it in the past. What do you think are the advantages/disadvantages which go along with having a CPA and flying?

You can make money doing taxes for lazy pilots. Specialize in the industry deductions.

That's actually not a bad idea :D. Make some extra income and make connections!
