Hi all. First post here so please be gentle ![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
I'm currently 39 and am a Financial Adviser (Diploma qualified) and I think I've made up my mind to 'get out' of this role. My background is that I worked for a Bank for 16 years before doing my F.A exams a few years ago and since then have been giving pensions/investment advice to high net worth clients.
My question is.......I've got decent savings and my wife earns good money, so if I give up my job and fully concentrate on the study, how quickly could I get qualified (realistically)? Which route should I go for (ACCA, etc)? Would I be able to do it from home/online/correspondance course?
I would really only be planning on individual tax affairs initially.
Thanks in advance of any advice.
