I'm graduating from a tech school and I want to change my major to business finance!?


I've got a problem. I'll have an associates degree to design electrical distribution systems which is what I also do at work currently. I'm burnt out and bored with it. I'm almost 20 and I've figured out I want to look into getting a business degree in finance and get into banking and/or the stock market. What path should you take for something like this. I'll have to work for at least another year to pay off my current school loans but in the mean time should I take night classes to get started on my bachelors degree in business? Also, are the starting salaries/ opportunities good for this type of career?

yes and yes. I would say go for it now while you can. If you wait chances are you wont. It is great that you found out now that you're ready for a career change some people don't figure this out until 20 years of working unhappily. You need toget a finance degree from an accredited university. Try to stay away from the online degrees they're not held high with most employers.

The question about opportunities and pay is too general to give specifics. The pay overall is great in the financial industry- some defintely better than others- but you have time to figure out what area you want to go in to.

The service industry including finance in one of a few industries in the United States that is growing. Obviously health care and the insurance industry are a few of the other industries I was referring to.

Good luck!!
