"You need to wean them off eventually"
True enough - eventually. Though not to go it alone - their returns are not that simple. It took me long enough to wean my clients off, which was not easy. I'm happy to keep my mind somewhat engaged for my family members for a little while longer - my colleagues do the same. It's good for the brain. Got a couple of house sales coming up in the next two years, and I'm happy to see them through that (one of them with a long-time home office - yippee!)
Preparing returns is the enjoyable part. Administering a tax practice, transmittal letters, billing, state and city agencies, licensing, CPE, and CYA - that's the stuff I am happy to be rid of.
When I'm more proficient at TTx, I'll come around to help answer questions.
