    I currently serve in the navy, and when I separate in about 18 months I definitely want to go back to school and earn my bachelor's degree in finance, but I gotta say the prospect of going back to school and graduating when I'm 28 years old kind of holds me back from fully commiting. However this video gives me confidence in knowing there are many career paths with the degree. Still, wrapping my head around the fact that I'll be 28 when most kids graduate at 22 or 23 still is a bit of a fear factor for me lol.

      I went back to school after 5yrs of active duty and was older than most freshmen. If you do nothing today tomorrow you will be in the same spot: Stuck. I got my degree & do not regret it as it opened many doors in my life and has lead to much success. I even went back & got my MBA. That veteran status & more maturity is a plus for most employers.

    Great video!!! Thanks so much for the insight!!! For the longest time during my college career, I thought I wanted to go into corporate finance, but during my last few months in grad school, I felt different about it. Instead, I have had a much higher interest in becoming a professor for finance and other business courses like marketing.
    Is it possible for a person with a bachelors and a masters degree in business administration and finance to get a professor role at a university. It can be community or a regular university. Should I instead focus on getting a doctorate or real-world experience first?
    Another thought I have had is to have a primary job in a bank, either investment or commercial banking, and then on the side I teach as an adjunct. Then overtime, as I gain more experience, I transition into the academia side full-time.

    currently thinking that I picked the wrong major. All the research I have done on business careers is SO boring.

My question is about the section where you say we don't have to be restricted to Finance in the workplace and can go into Economics or whatever else.
