Accounting blogs for the kids

November 19, 2010

I'm what's diplomatically described as being "of a certain age," so I feel free to use the term "kids" as I please. In this headline's instance, I'm not talking toddlers, but college kids.

That's an audience, specifically students studying accounting, that apparently might find the ol' blog entertaining and informative, according to Jared Eutsler, a CPA (and a lot of other financial accreditations noted by his many suffixes!) and full-time faculty member of the School of Business at Rasmussen College.

Don't Mess With Taxes is included in Eutsler's blog post 20 Blogs Accounting Students Will Love.

"We've hand-picked 20 authoritative and engaging accounting blogs for your reading – and learning – pleasure," writes Eutsler.

I'm thrilled and honored to be part of a list that contains many fine blogs with which I'm familiar — TaxProf Blog, MauledAgain, The Fraud Files, TaxMama's Tax Quips, Taxable Talk, Our Taxing Times, Golden Practices Blog, Tax Rascal and Tick Marks –- as well as many that I plan to get to know.

Check out the post and all the accounting and tax blogs listed there.

And I beg your indulgence as I repeat below the very kind words Eutsler had about Don't Mess With Taxes:

Don't Mess With Taxes – Kay Bell, a journalist and corporate communicator with a passion for taxes founded this blog to make "taxes less taxing." Bell provides practical daily, weekly and monthly tax tips full of valuable information for both taxpayers and accounting professionals alike.

Thanks, Mr. Eutsler, for your assessment and especially for reading my right and left nav bar information!

Tax Season 2026 Continues!

We made it. Tax Day 2025 is finally over. For most of us. When the filing season started on Jan. 26, millions who were expecting refunds filed immediately. Most of us got our returns to the Internal Revenue Service by April 15. But plenty of taxpayers also got extensions. They are looking at an Oct. 15 filing deadline.

Those procrastinating filers aren’t a problem. In fact, the IRS appreciates taxpayers who take time to fill out their 1040 forms correctly. It also is grateful that tax submissions are spread out a bit, especially now that the IRS is a leaner agency. Processing returns is easier when they arrive throughout the year instead of in massive bunches.

But enough about Uncle Sam’s tax collection issues. The focus now is on all y’all who filed for extensions, giving you another six months to complete your return. Since your new mid-October due date will be here before you know it, let’s get started now on meeting it.

The ol’ blog is here to help you finish up your extended Form 1040. You can start with January’s tax tips page, which has links to the rest of the year’s tips by-month collections. You also can peruse various tax categories for more tailored advice by clicking on the More Tax Posts drop-down menu at the top of this (and every) page.

And to make sure you don’t miss your new filing deadline, the count-down clock below will let you know just how much time you to file by Oct. 15. At the latest.e. (Note: I’m in the Central Time Zone, so adjust accordingly for where you live.)

    For me, when studying accounting students learn importance of financial transparency. I guess that’s why it is very important to realize it’s importance during the course.
