I am planning to get a concentration in finance but I want to start a business down the road so I don't know if I should even bother with that.
Those of us who are 29+ let's give advice to new graduates and those 17-24
- Thread starter Ed MOTHERFUCKING G
- Start date
If you will have the money by the time you graduate to start that business, than cool. But if you're going to need some money to pay back loans and pay other bills, you're going to need that post graduation job which will provide you with a good salary and healthcare(very important), so I still would suggest getting an internship in a field that's close to what you want to do. It can only benefit you more ways than one.
thanks for the advice.Yea I plan on stacking my money for at least 10 years before i attempt a business. Do you know any good places to intern since you are in the atl?
Banks, wealth management firms, a lot of financial service companies offer good paid internships. Definitely check out places like suntrust, regions bank, Bank of America, Wells Fargo.

Haven't been through the thread so I am not sure this has been mentioned. But i can not overstate the importance of emotional intelligence! Life is about how your react to things and if you think no one is watching while you overreact to day to day circumstances that you are faced with, you're kidding yourself. Its always better to be the person who can take a step back to evaluate a situation then to be the one who reacts based off emotions. And this goes for every aspect life! Peace to the youngins out there! Stay focused!

yo some of this is actually good advice
24 just made the cut 
Travel and see some of the world before you lock into that work cycle, you may never get the chance to do it again, once life gets in the way and you got obligations out the ass you will constantly find yourself saying "Maybe next year" every year.

Stay away from negative people, build a solid portfolio don't be great at just one thing when you can be good at many (unless you got the gift), if it feels wrong it probably is don't do it trust your instincts, don't get a woman pregnant before you are ready for that type of responsibility both emotionally and financially, have fun, let go of the negative past, cherish the good moments, and remember there is no real structure to this just flow with it.

if u got the head for it, finance. those dudes put in a ton of work, and you have to know all that math shyt, but they get paid. might not be for you though

this and also make sure you're prepared for a child. Just cuz it's with your husband or wife doesn't mean you guys are ready. Babies are a major financial responsibility. It's not like buying a house or car. You don't want to be struggling and bring a child into the world that will go thru the same thing.
