The Accountant’s Twitter List 2018

AccountingWEB have put together a list of accountants, finance professionals and other interested parties who generally send informative, entertaining and non-promotional tweets out into the accountancy Twittersphere.

I have been included in that list:

“Ken Frost (@ken_frost) Expect irreverence and expertise in equal measure from this FCA member of ICAEW, consultant, company director, banker and writer.”

My thanks to AccountingWEB, and congratulations to those others on the list.

More to the point, capitalism really sprang to life with the creation of limited companies.
