I had 3... finance, real estate and political science.
Took a lot of accounting classes and corporate accounting management has been part of my career. You need to have a very good aptitude for detail and enjoy working with it every day to find an accounting career rewarding. Also, of course a good ability to work with numbers. Although I was in charge of an accounting department as one of my responsibilities in finance it was never my favorite part of my job. I think the people who do best at it are typically more introverted than I was in my career.
My brother is studying accounting and it seems like a pretty good major to me.
He says there's always gonna be jobs for accountants cuz every company needs someone to balance the books and do taxes and stuff. Plus you can go into all sorts of fields with an accounting degree, not just working for a company.
You could be a CPA (certified public accountant), work for a bank, go into finance, be an auditor, work for the government doing taxes... ton of options. And most of them pay pretty well straight out of college too from what I've heard.
The only downside my bro mentioned is the work can be super detailed and boring sometimes. You gotta like examining numbers and finding errors and anomalies and all that detective work.
But if you're good with math and interested in how businesses operate, it seems like it'd be a really practical degree that sets you up for stable employment. And once you get that first job your foot's in the door for moving up from there.
I'd say go for it man, way better than like an art history degree or something where you gotta scramble to find work. At least with accounting, you know there'll be jobs waitin once you graduate. Let me know if you have any other questions!
