Most people think accountants are just “bean counters” — pale faces buried in spreadsheets and tax returns. But the truth is far bigger.

In this episode of No Set Format, we strip away the clichés and step inside the real world of accounting:

• From public accountants advising family businesses, to auditors uncovering billion-dollar frauds.

• From management accountants sketching futures in late-night offices, to forensic specialists tracing money through scandals like Enron and Madoff.

• From tax experts navigating impossible codes, to government accountants keeping hospitals, schools, and public trust alive.

Through listener voices from Chicago to Ohio, and real-world stories from the UK and US, we discover that accounting isn’t just numbers — it’s choices, consequences, and lives written between the lines.

Because every balance sheet tells a story.
And maybe… yours begins here.

In this episode, we follow Sarah in Manchester and David in Austin, two people on different continents facing the same question: is bookkeeping just the smaller version of accounting, or is it something entirely different?

We’ll break down the real distinctions, explore qualifications in the UK and US, compare pay and lifestyle, and look at how both careers travel across borders. From steady ledgers to crunch-season deadlines, this is the difference between the map and the journey.

If you’ve ever wondered where bookkeeping ends and accounting begins, this is your guide.

The Personality of NumbersWhat kind of personality suits accountancy?
Is it really just for “bean counters” — or does it take something more?
In this episode, we dive beneath the stereotype to uncover the real traits that define accountants and auditors: trust, patience, curiosity, persistence, and the ability to balance opposites — detail and big picture, routine and crisis, numbers and human stories.

From auditors chasing down a hidden discrepancy at two in the morning, to forensic accountants telling stories in a courtroom, to management accountants shaping the future of entire companies — this episode explores how personality shapes the profession, and how the profession shapes personality in return.

If you’ve ever wondered whether you’re the right “type” for this career… listen closely. You may find the answer isn’t about loving maths, but about loving meaning.
