debit and credit and double entry and assets = liabilities and what?
So I'm trying to learn some basic accounting, as part of making a business of photography. What the hell? Damn Luca Pacioli and his silly double-entry system. Okay, it makes it nearly impossible to lose track of money or cheat on your taxes, and it provides employment for millions of accountants, but it's making my head hurt. This crap should be required to graduate high school or at least college. I think it would have prepared me a lot better than Algebra II or pre-calculus did.

Oh well. Back to owner's equity and revenue and draws and...

Brian, your Dad learned accounting over the telephone back in 1959/1960. He would call me on the base line and was taught acctg. You are right, much easier to learn in high school. Algebra II I learned in college but at the age of 40. Know what you mean. Your trip to Prague sounds great. Look forward to seeing the photos.
