I may be on the other corner of the continent right now, but I actually just moved here less than a year ago from Alaska.

The reason I thought about it was actually completely separate from my investing.

I am always just skeptical when someone who has obvious financial interests in whipping up fear and uncertainty spends such a great amount of bandwidth coming into a forum whipping up fear and uncertainty.Maybe some people actually need to shell out a bunch of dough to "experts" to put a "compliance monitoring program" in place or to have them review the legalese of their websites, and maybe it makes them feel better knowing that even if nobody has ever been prosecuted for the things they are paying money to address, it is still a good investment.  

Overall, I probably spend about 5-10 minutes per day in Quickbooks for my flipping business (I actually spend a lot more time in Quickbooks for my other business, which has many fewer transactions, but has inventory).

Zana Blue well I actually did serve the notice already.
