I had an acountant and he charged an insane amount...but from what I can gather thats normal. A ffriend of mine is an accountant but....it's hard to explain...he's my friend thats the pathological liar and for some reason I don't trus him. He also said that the ATO would have a list of all my classes through my ABN and if they didn't they would call the "ABN people"...so I really don't trust him. I know he is an accountant but I don;t think he knows much about personal tax.

Guess i'd better just bite the bullet and fork out the cash
