- Reading: Going to University to eventually a CPA
As the title states, I'll be attending a local 4-year university this Autumn, and I will be majoring in Accounting. I am primarily interested in becoming a CPA (Certified Public Accountant), and one of the requirements my state has to become one is 150 hours in college.
Now, assuming I wouldn't take any summer courses and I would do 12 - 15 hours per semester, I would be looking at 5 - 6 years at my University. Now, if this were the case, should I just go for a Master's degree, and which one should I go for, between an MBA (Master of Business and Administration) and MS in Accounting -- both of which are offered by the University I will be attending.
Isn't CPA on the top ten list for being automated out of existence?
You might as well become a truck driver.

Well, in that case, what would a good career be for someone who's adept with numbers, besides the obvious mathematician field?

Well, I'm not giving up my dreams, but it wouldn't hurt to see what other choices I may have if what he says is true.
