I really should get another one, but he's a good friend, should I tell him something.

Tell your accountant no. It is your money and you have the authority to tell him/her what they can do with it. It doesn't matter that he's a friend. You're the boss not your accountant. After all, you're the one who's paying him.

Never mix business with friendship. As your accountant, he works for you. He should give advice, not tell you what he is going to do with your money.
PS: I hope by "gamble" you mean risky investments, not a trip to the casino!

You should tell him that you are uncomfortable with the risks that he is taking with your money. Technically, accounts shouldn't be doing anything with your money other than keeping track of it. If he is making investments with it, legally, he should be either a CFP or a CFA, which require classes and passing an exam. You should be extremely wary of whatever he is doing with your money.

I would love to find the answer to this one !! I have a good friend that lost my savings several years ago when the market crashed. I am still at a loss for words when I see him.
