Having worked at GoDaddy whilst it was still owned and operated solely by
Bob, he actually had tax accounting software he had written and was using
in the mid-80s, early 90s. He sold this software (company et. al.) to
Intuit. His software, along with many others in that field would eventually
create the base of what would later become TurboTax.

Although QuickBooks was probably inspired by many features found in
TurboTax, there is no clear line between the two, or any direct connections
to Bob Parsons.
