What course should I take?
Question by rex: What course should I take?
I’m about to graduate next year, and up to now, I’m just not really sure what I want. Basically, I think there are just two courses for me: liberal arts or management. I know that if you’re a writer, philosopher, artist, musician, etc., you aren’t really gonna earn much money but at least you do what you want. In management, though, it’s more on the safe side since more often than not, businesses are more successful than their arts counterparts. I like finances and stuff, but I think I’m just more interested in music. I’m really confused on which to take: liberal arts (doing what I want, less money) or management (doing what is just “okay” for me, more money). I don’t mean to be biased, but I just think that businessman earn more money than arts professions. I would also be grateful if you guys can also tell me what university I should attend to (based on my preferences). :))

If you can’t make up your mind, then you should find a University that has both a business program and strong liberal arts. This way you can change your major if you want. Ultimately, it doesn’t matter if you major in Liberal Arts or Business, because many people work in fields that are unrelated to their undergraduate major. It’s better to be happy than to be rich. What does money do for you if you end up having to buy a Porche just to feel like a man? Careers can be inspiring, or they can be soul crushing. I chose an inspiring one.
