Just called a CPA who had never heard of Bills of Exchange or Lawful Money, and didn't know the proper accounting for Trust Holding Companies...but he sounded like an expert in taking my money and giving it to the IRS

The Ferryman's biggest problem is people not paying, even though he gets them to the other side. All he gets is complaints that they're on the "other side".

Then they get confused and upset when the Ferryman's officers and crew slit their throats and dump them overboard because they decided the Ferryman shouldn't be paid, because he's mean and hurts their feelings...

The title "chartered accountant" (CA) and the designatory letters CA, ACA and FCA go back to the origins of the organized profession in Scotland and England nearly 150 years ago, with the granting of royal charters by Queen Victoria. Today, CA's in all of the Home Institutes of ACAUS have attained a level of professional expertise that has become a world standard. CA's undergo lengthy and rigorous training and must pass numerous examinations to qualify for membership. Moreover, they are required to maintain high standards of professional conduct and competence supervised by their home institutes.

former east indian trading company+see chartered accountants=Royal charter..At one time, a royal charter was the sole means by which an incorporated body could be formed, but other means (such as the registration process for limited companies) are generally used nowadays instead.

"In Canada, Chartered Accountants belong to the Canadian Institute of Chartered Accountants ("CICA") by way of membership in at least one provincial/territorial institute (or order in Quebec). In order to become a CA, a candidate requires an undergraduate degree plus experience and, depending on the province, additional education. Candidates in all provinces are required to pass the 3-day Uniform Evaluation ("UFE"). As of January 2013, Canadian CA's have adopted the CPA (Chartered Professional Accountant) designation. Now CA, CGA and CMA (all three accounting bodies in Canada) are in process of unification." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chartered_Accountant#Canada

Membership generally falls into two categories: freemen and liverymen. One may become a freeman, or acquire the "freedom of the company", upon fulfilling certain criteria: traditionally, by "patrimony", if either parent were a liveryman of the company; by "servitude", if one has served the requisite number of years as an apprentice to a senior company member; or by "redemption", upon paying a fee. Most livery companies reserve the right to admit distinguished people, particularly in their sphere of influence, as honorary freemen. Freemen may advance to become liverymen, after obtaining the freedom of the City of London, and with their Court of Assistants' approval. Only liverymen are eligible to vote in the annual election of the Lord Mayor of London, the Sheriffs and various other City civic offices, including the Ale Conners and Bridge Masters.

I just asked SGMIs bookkeeper for a referral to a Chartered Accountant and she said I wouldn't find one in the States. "Chartered accts are out of the country" was her exact quote...then she said "you might find one that has CPA and Charter"
