Are all accountants
 

...dumb. Last December I got a notice from the IRS that I owed an additional X amount on my 2001 taxes. I fired my accountant (who was a friend) because this was not the first time he screwed up. I had told him multiple times not to do any creative accounting, if in doubt don't take a deduction.

I hired a new accountant to go over the paper work and see if the IRS was correct and he verified that they were correct. This year I filed an amended tax form for 2001 taxes, so that is all squared away. I had the same new accountant do my 2002 taxes and told him the same thing I had told my friend, if in doubt don't take a deduction.

Well...I have already received a notice from the IRS that I owe an additional X amount on my 2002 taxes. I am having the new accountant go over the paper work again to see if the IRS is correct. If they are, and I suspect they are, I am going to fire the new accountant.

Fuck..I am thinking about taking some courses at the community college and start doing my own taxes.

And can you file a schedule C with it? I think I have it but I
don't know how to use it, I thought it was a tad confusing.
I don't have the slightest clue bout doing taxes.
