Answer 1

Well for finance & accounting you dont need to study economics but if you want to become financial analyst then you need to study some economics.

Also, if you take economics it will broaden your horizon and analytical capability. Just remember, for pure finance & accounting you dont need any economics.

best of luck

Answer 2

Mathematics is much more useful.

BTW, the world is abstract.

no one LIKES economics, people just like the money it makes them....
