Are you abetter account by being meen

It has been observed that many of the accountants are very stingy. They rarely give money and they can easily tell you that they don’t have while in actual sense they do have. However a few accountants are generous and would sympathize with a needy situation and break the perception that all accountants are stingy. I have come across accountants who feel pain when they pay others their dues. They love getting a way of not paying you even in circumstances that they should pay. The enjoy getting more and paying little, remaining with a balance and having surpluses. Think about that!!!!!!!! Strange. The measure of a good accountant if profitability and profit if a product of revenue/receipt and payment/expenditure. If you get more and pay less you will make profit and the way to pay less is to deny others their right.Very bad!!!!!!!
Let’s go back to the stingy character of accountants. Is this in- born or acquired during their professional development? Do accountants have feelings and a heart to sympathize? Is being stingy a measure of professionalism, organization and preparedness?
My view is that you need not be stingy to be a better accountant

The accountant`s attire

I have been seeing many Kenyan accountants in black suits and I wonder if this is the recommended attire for accountants. Do suits make us more westernized that other attires? Could it be presentable to be in a suit as an accountant? Why black?

I am a qualified accountant but I get irritated by these black suits. They look as if I am in a funeral and I have just comer to hate them.Fellow accountant might think that I am not presentable but I don't agree with them at all. I know that dressing makes personality but personality is not made entirely on dressing.I have seen good brains in shaggy attire and verse visa.My take is that extreme in any situation is not beneficial.
