What accounting software does everyone use? From time to time I see a new product pop up in this space and its tempting to be distracted learning new ideas. Clearly we can't pivot for every cool new software idea, so Im curious if folks could share their fav and why?

AB 1175 just passed - major changes coming to CPA licensing in CA (effective Jan 2027): What's changing: - ✅ Bachelor's degree with accounting concentration - ✅ 2 years experience - ✅ Pass the CPA exam - ❌ NO MORE 150-unit requirement! Why it matters: The expensive "5th year" barrier is gone, making it more accessible to enter the profession. Plus, more flexible experience options and better mobility for out-of-state CPAs.

My First post. Thank you for having me. I am in my CPA solopreneur journey and have been in it for 5 years. I don't have any rental properties right now. Maybe soon. Quick question for your guys? So I keep getting confused with the backdoor Roth conversion. I thought that the $70,000 limitation was on a defined contribution plan, and by defined contribution plan, I mean the 401(k). So then does that mean that you can only do a backdoor Roth conversion on a company-sponsored plan and not your individual retirement account?
