Thanks mom.
Protip to anyone considering their Major or in highschool... NEVER listen to your parents.
Your mom is right not for the right reason.
Finance and accounting are wage slave meme tier degrees

And what isn't a wageslave degree then? Literally everything is just varying amounts of wageslave but Accounting and Finance are the most applicable to the real-world and understanding how a business functions and operates.

Accounting is a vastly superior degree to finance, because if the job wants finance degrees, the accounting degree is just as good (or better) to them.
Accounting is one of the best degrees because it shows 'hey I know about business' just like the finance degree, but with the added benefit of having A MARKETABLE FUCKING SKILL

Boring as fuck tho. Upper year Accounting courses are unstomachable.

Yep. Generally in life, business, the easier something is to do the less it is worth doing
>>1034314
if you're willing to major in something as boring as finance just put up with a little bit more boringness and do accounting, at least that way you'll graduate with a degree you can actually do things with and at least be guaranteed a job (unless you really fuck everything up)
>>1034311
probably but it is so boring i would rather shoot myself than have an accounting job
