Because of my special ability to make money without working traditional jobs everyone tells me to major in Business. So thats the plan right now. I love helping people so I was hoping to learn more about becoming a financial adviser. I just don’t want to be in a situation where it takes years to make decent money.
I want to use my investment skills in the real estate market asap. But I need a reliable decent paying job to begin how I would like. I’m currently under the Finance degree route, but I’m afraid that it will be too broad for me to land a good job out of college.
So should I continue with a business degree? More specifically for someone wanting to own duplexes/ trailer parks/flip property would a finance degree/w business minor be the best option?
Thanks all.
Thanks for both of yours answers but I need a little more help. I realize that I do not actually need a degree to work in the real estate field, but I do want a decent paying job fairly quick out of college.I want to make 30k/yr pretty quick out of college save up money and buy a duplex or rental unit of any type. Pay this off asap then buy another and so on. Just a basic strategy that should work since I’m a single young person. I know that a finance degree will eventually help me in anything related to business, but I do not want to be stuck in a situation where I cannot find a job with a degree in Finance. Also I am not dropping out. I want a four year degree to keep graduate school & political interest in the future open.
So the question is- How confident can I be in landing a decent landing job out of college with a degree in finance? Or should I get a degree that guarantees me a job completely unrelated and just read books about real estate?
