I am learning Spanish (mexican) and my wife who is a native speaker is helping me. I said something to her the other "....toods los días". She said that is not right it is "cada dia" if I want to say "everyday". We got into a little discussion on it and I looked it up and my study book says "todos los dias" means everyday but she says it just does not sound right. We even called her mom and she agreed todos sounds funny.

I trust her and if she says its cada its cada, but why am I getting conflicting information? Is Todos los dias more common in not Mexico?

I am a former PM in type V construction with about 10 years experience. Over the past few years I made the career transition from construction to accounting and recently got my CPA license. Instead of being a generalist or figuring out some other niche, I decided to put my past experience to use and want to specialize in construction accounting. With my eventual goal of going solo and providing fractional CFO, advisory and tax services.
With that said in your experience where has your previous or current accountants fallen short? What should I do to make myself a better or more appealing CPA?

I change careers into another field and I am still on good terms with my old boss. He has asked me to provide a lumber and labor take off on a 260k sqft apartment job due in about 2.5 weeks. I have never done freelance work before so I am unsure on how to charge.
