Ask HN: Any startup founders here with an accounting/finance background?
2 points by jasonli 5189 days ago
Just a topic I've been curious about for a while. I currently study accounting and finance in university, but I'm working on a startup that is totally unrelated. I'm sure there are people in a similar situation, and if you're one of them, I'm really interested in hearing your story!

My degree is Bachelor of Management, Specialization in Finance. Aside from a well-rounded business education, I haven't really needed it and it hasn't helped me get jobs at tech startups.
Currently sitting for the CPA but working on a few ideas. Hope to launch something in the next year.
