Oh, and what would be the result of majoring in finance -> not attending a target school -> not breaking into M&A, I-banking, etc. (irreversibly declining industries).
Answer: A dead-end job at a regional banking branch (non-HQ) that will require further education (debt) to "POTENTIALLY" break into a higher paying job.
Finance is full of people with survival bias. That is to say that you only hear about the people that survive, you don't hear from the people that died (figuratively and literally).

Fiance as a profession? No. Not unless you go to an ivy league school and can network your way into a top tier firm. Accounting will provide you with more options.
>Most of them made 80k/year straight after their bachelor studies. Performance bonuses can go up to 500k per year in your first years. lol! most people in finance do not go into investment banking. Also, only guys at the top get those kind of bonuses and get used to working 100 hours a week (not a typo) in NYC for ~150k your analyst years.

Yes, but curb your expectations about earnings after graduation
Also learn SQl and maybe some python before you graduate and thank me later

I would rather suck cocks for a living. It's one of the most "who you know" industries around.
