What does this say about me?

Question

Im interested in investments and stocks

ive always enjoyed looking at the stocks section in the paper

poker is my life

im a business major

is there any major or field that will be good for me?

Answer 1

If poker is "your life"..... you've got a major problem. Fix that and you'll find your way with the rest!

Answer 2

You can work for the world stock market or any stock market in your country...

Answer 3

Without knowing the extent you wager, and percent you win, the above simply tells me that you enjoy risk, you're interested in how this enjoyment may play out in the stock market, and being in business as a major is allowing you a general background that could take you many places.

To turn risk-taking into a living requires that you understand the tradeoffs to the extent you can make a sustained living from it - just as the best poker players do - they use math to determine when it's wise to push it, and when it's wise to stand aside. The investment side means understanding when the odds are in your favor (an up market/sector/best of breed stock) and when they aren't, and how to handle it.  

Majors - Finance, Economics, Actuarial Science

Best wishes with your career

Answer 4

Get a job as a trader with a bank, hedge fund, or institution.

Answer 5

i think working as a charter accountant is best for you?

if you are smart enough you can study accounting in any of the universities ( for you academic certificate) and meanwhile work on the AAT.

if you got it( it is not a hard thing to achieve)

then work on the ACCA ( THIS IS REALLY HARD)

BUT TAKE IT FROM ME, once you get it all closed doors will open for you.

hope that helps... i know that is a lot for a person who wants to choose a major, but believe me i needed someone to show me the path when i was your age...

good luck..
