The demand for CPAs is increasing and the majority of CPAs are retiring (I believe 75% in the next 15 years). I would say accounting is one of the best and “safest” fields that you could choose from.

I'm thinking about pursuing an accounting MBA. It features 33 hours in accounting which is what NY State requires for the CPA exam. I like crunching numbers and think well quantitatively. I've taken intro to accounting at the undergrad level and liked it. My concern is related to outsourcing and technology. People have suggested that accountants may be replaced by computer programs or outsourcing? Do you believe that accounting is a "safe" field to enter?
