It is the TOUGHEST to be a "QUALITY" CHARTERED ACCOUNTANT.

Quoting Arun Jaitley :
.
"I started out with a hidden desire of becoming a CA. I strayed into other activities and then preferred Law because at that time also the CA exam was difficult," he said while addressing a function of the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India (ICAI) in Delhi.

"That (CA) exam was difficult to pass...
Law was a difficult exam to fail," he quipped.

MORAL :

.
CHOOSE WHAT YOU LIKE
(not what is taken as GOOD by the MASS),

More importantly -
CHOOSE A CAREER WHERE YOU FIND YOURSELF FIT.

Mr.Arun Jaitley is an astute politician and fine orator. He has held various positions in his career adeptly, as a lawyer of the Suprem Court, Spokesperson of the party, minister in previous Vajapayee Government, as leader of opposition in the Rajya Sabha, as a cricket administrator, election strategist for his party and various other important posts. Even now holding 3 main portfolios for the time being, and handling them with ease. His speeches are very powerful and measured. Thank you sir for reminding us of his great speech at CA day. The speech was very inspirational and many students / members should understand the core message which he conveyed. Do things in life which is dear to heart.
