Divorce

[Larry Fisher]

Yeah, divorce.  It sucks.  I gotta do all this paper work and inventory and
evaluations and crap that I really hate doing.  I'd rather dig up my sewer
......... well ok maybe not.  Has anyone had any experience with a nerdy
little CPA doing a business evaluation for a piano bizz ......  I fear gross
failures in accuracy and competence.  For instance, lots of new parts, but
no market to sell them in.  They're good for the piano they were intended
for, but not for resale to fellow techs.  Really narrow market I might add.
Used parts are worthless but does the NERD know that??  We're in a very
specialized field here and some people think they have the low down on every
profession there is.

I can have some local dealers come over and evaluate the pianos, a few local
techs evaluate the parts inventory .... "What'll ya give me??" and I can
come pretty close on the power tools and my mechanic can evaluate the tool
chest stack full of mechanics tools and such.  I really don't trust the
option of my wife's attorney's choice of a CPA evaluator doing all this.
Any one experience this sort of thing and does anyone have any suggestions??
