I am a CPA with 20+ years of experience. I laugh at the lawyer/accountant/medical analogies, not because they aren't true, mostly for people who insinuate medical professionals should work for free or are obligated to work for free because medical is sacred? I have no problem telling clients these days, if you don't want to pay me for my knowledge/skill/experience, I will go home and spend time with my family or doing something I enjoy. My time is not yours unless we both agree you will pay for it or I give it to you for free out of my own choice. You do not own my time and you do not own your medical professional's time either. PS: To the person who said you can willingly go to the open market and find professional "X" somewhere in this thread. Good luck. CPAs, lawyers, any professional with experience is in such high demand its hilarious. We name our price and chose the clients we want to work with these days. I know people in my industry from a variety of locations across the US, same problem everywhere. If you don't want to pay for experience from any professional industry, go ask ChatGPT or spend half your day watching Tiktok or Youtube videos, good luck. Not saying it to be pompous, it's reality and has been for ~5 years. |
