Bovenstaande titel in een Accountancy Vanmorgen artikel pakte mijn interesse. Het bleek van mijn oud-PWN collega John van der Starre te zijn. Accountants vertonen inderdaad vaak ayatollah gedrag: kan niet, mag niet, maar ook wil niet. Zekerheid is een deel van hun geloof. Absolute zekerheid bestaat niet. Zelfs onze zon stopt uiteindelijk.
