Lighter Side
Accountants, as you may know, are traditionally wonderful with numbers and being as important as numbers are in business and everyday life, we have been known to be quite serious… most of the time. Here at Cadick Williams McAllister Ford we too are very serious about our accounting, but we are not quite so serious all of the time. There is indeed a Lighter Side to our company.
Did you know:
- Bob Newhart, American funny man, got his first job out of the army working as an accountant in downtown Chicago, Ill?
- Robert Plant gave up accountancy training in the late 1960’s to sing for the band Led Zeppelin?
- John Grisham, author of The Firm and The Pelican Brief, received his B.S. in accounting from Mississippi State University in 1977?
Unlike these accounting super-stars, we never gave up on the dream of accounting; even though we still love to laugh, sing and write! Check back often as we will update photos and content here regularly.

Pete Studies New Tax Laws
Pictured here, Pete has been diligently studying the changes and updates to the 2010 tax laws. Pete finds that sometimes you have to close your eyes to really get a good ‘visual sense’ of how changes to tax laws apply and can benefit clients.
Keep up the good work Pete!
