So, I watched a video recently where the guest speaker said, that if he gets the opportunity to advise teens in high school he would tell them not to study economics, and it made me scared because I'm studying economics. So, it was like... ' Did I make the wrong choice or something? '. Moving further in the video, I realized that what he was saying and explaining had already been said by my economics lecturer before.
"Economics is a day-to-day practice and is an easy endeavor made difficult for study reasons", he usually said. Watching the video to the end, I asked myself, "If I had the opportunity to go back in time would I pick another course to study? " And the answer was ..." No". And if I have the opportunity to advise any high school student about courses to choose... I'd say "Economics". The more people learn about even basic economics, the better the economy of countries.
So, if you had the opportunity to advise people about courses to choose In University, what would it be and why?
I studied economics but if I could return back, I would study informational technologies because there is a very high competition among those who finish Business management and economics and because of this competition, salaries are very low. In overall, economics is a necessary, people should know how economy and money works in order to gain financial advantage and not struggle in their life but life doesn't work the way we study in universities. In universities, they don't talk much about shady business practices, what happens behind the scenes and how dark the business is.
University course about economics is only good to become a hired person, that's all about it.
