haha im chillin bro just focusing on gym and money atm.
which mogs money wise, accounting or comp sci, they are both boring asf so im just forcused on the money
computer science mogs if you want to wageslave but I think accounting is easier to start your own firm in
i heard ppl getting 200+k jobs (only from top unis) in cs, but like if not cs then what should i study at uni jfl fuck being a doctor shit takes too long
idk i just base it off avrg salary and comp sci mogs thats why im leaning towards it
have you already been accepted to a university?
nope as i still have another semester left, but my current marks are like low to mid 90s, and i think i will get like mid 90s as a final avrg if i try hard enough
first of all, appreciate you for taking the time out of your day to type this well-formed paragraph,
yeah I feel like the anti-social aspect of cs will fuck me up and turn me into a nerd, and I feel as if I do accounting or some business job, it will allow me to have the necessary social interactions ppl need.
I don't want to be rude but your goals and perspective on life seem a little infantile. Every man needs purpose in life and these materialistic things will get old real fast. Anyhow i'm not here to judge and i wasn't aware you didn't have the necessary qualifications to study Medicine. I guess you go the software dev route, make 6 figures while doing only few hours of work a day max and you can basically work on a business while you're at work instead of the regular 9-5 wagie who doesn't have a single minute of free time. High salary + decent amount of free time to work on business seems ideal for your goals and i think it's achievable with software dev jobs. With these high salaries, you can probably save quite a bit if you're frugal and retire a lot earlier than most people. When it comes to money, software blows accounting out of the water, when you get an entry level job, maybe you'll start at 60-80k and eventually get to 100-150k but software devs will be double that in the same time atleast if you don't fuck up badly.first of all, appreciate you for taking the time out of your day to type this well-formed paragraph,
I agree with you on how going into the medical route would be more fulfilling but unfortunately, i don't have the prerequisites to study medicine as I did not take any science-related courses,
that's why I narrowed my options down to business or computer science
ideally, I want to go to uni and get a high-paying job so I can use that money to transition it to make more money or have a business (I don't wanna work a 9-5 rest of my life)
if I was a doctor yeah id be making hella money when I'm in my 30s but id much rather have money when I'm younger to play around with it and invest in some shit yk
I'm not passionate about anything rn, only motivation is money, and I would rather be an entrepreneur and not even go to uni in the first place but I feel like that's too risky and that it would be a better idea to do comp sci while coming up with business ideas.
All I need is a big house, a Porsche 911, and go to the gym daily, then ill be fulfilled
tbh i watched a lot of Andrew tate so he does have an impact on my perspective, even tho I get genuine joy from the thought of owning a nice sports car, and i don't take offense to that I agree with you. And yea that's the plan the last thing I want is for me to be a code monkey for the rest of my life, starting some sort of business is my goal.
Each to their own but i found Accounting to be insufferably boring. Studying for it while in university wasn't that bad but it's just such a boring soulless job to me. It will always be in demand due to the nature of the work but the first few years you'll be working long hours at big 4 until you qualify/get your CPA and then maybe you can work at a smaller firm and make decent money (still pales in comparison to CS money). The way i see it, if money is the only goal, you ideally get a high paying remote CS job, save as much money as possible and try to start alternative ways of income to eventually stop the 9-5. Medicine is real hard work but very fulfilling later on and top money.
btw are you in the medicine field
I was in the Accounting field but i'm currently trying to transition to Software Engineer jobs. Specifically cloud engineering and then hopefully AWS. I'll probably fail and have to go back to Accounting but i'm going to give it a shot anyways. I have family doing Medicine though and i deeply regret not going into the field. I don't want to be that 37 year old junior doctor who decided to change careers and go to med school at 30.
I feel that if someone picks the med route, they have to make their whole life about that and dedicate a large portion of their life for it, as i said earlier ideally i want a decent high paying job and eventually transition into being my own boss (starting a business)
That is true, going the med route is something that requires 100% of your attention and effort. Your life and career become one, and usually people who do it just for the money burn out and end up leaving the field.
If you are a high performer, go into finance or consulting. For the former, ideally study mathematics in combination or major in economics. For the second I would actually go into business psychology at a good university, there the major is not so important, but in psychology lectures you have a large proportion of women, keep that in mind. In general, you should focus on getting into a good university, where you can network better.first of all, appreciate you for taking the time out of your day to type this well-formed paragraph,

then go into sales without a degree, if you are really good and the product is also great, you can make a lot money there.
btw some person on reddit said this, "Retired doc here, I retired at 50yr, when the stress of practice started affecting my health. I'm not rich, but comfortable. I have heard of docs practicing into their 90's, living above their clinics in downtown locations. I don't regret doing it, but I didn't encourage my kids to go into medicine. My oldest was a finance major, who transitioned to speech therapist. My youngest is an architect/nuclear reactor operator/turned lawyer. Both are much better off financially than I am, and happier with their careers. I'm pretty happy to be out of medicine."
yeah exactly, i have no passion for it and would only be doing it for the money, which would most likely cause me to give up
I would go for sales without a degree but I don't have the balls to risk it when I can take the safer route of studying cs,
I'm on a similar place, I want to get an IT job and use that money to run my business but I'm not planning on getting CS degree, maybe im wrong but I do think it's very possible to get a job without a computer science degree. Also, I wonder if you've consider a different IT job, personally I dont really like software developing so im studying cloud computing on my own, I think things like networking or sysadmin are easier and also pay very well.
Well doctors do work long hours and if they don't take care of their health, they end up like this guy. However, i don't agree with him saying lawyer/speech therapist are going to be better off financially than a doctor with decades of experience, i can't imagine that happening unless this guy took a shit tier sub category of doctor which doesn't pay well or something like that. If you go into the right field, you're making 500k to a million a year, how can a lawyer or a speech therapist (meme job) compete with that? they can't. Anyways, smart people who don't want to stick around in medicine long term save up/open their own practice/go private to reduce work hours by a lot and make the big bucks. This guy is obviously a retard.
Of course, contacts are essential. But you must not forget that high performance breeds high performance. If your parents are hard-working people from the same field, they are your role models, they naturally shape you as a child and can also give you all the knowledge so that you have an advantage in this regard. Most people have hardly any contacts in this area beforehand btw.
Depends on your goals and not everyone enjoys CS. But nevertheless you should at least belong to the top 10% regardless of your studies.
You don't have to do it all your life, one year in sales alone will teach you more for life than 5 years at university. Learning rhetoric, negotiating, presentations etc. is essential, at the same time you can get a taste of it and build up a small "financial reserve" for your university time. It is also easier to get internships through it
I'm in a similar situation wanting to study cloud computing/engineering. However, i think having a relevant degree is very important in this field. I mean sure, people self-study and get web dev jobs but those are low tier, it's very difficult to self-study and find jobs in good high paying fields in this industry, atleast that's my opinion. Hopefully i'm wrong for the both of us. I don't like being a code monkey either and cloud computer is the route for people like us. Networking/sys admin/SQL database admin is easy work but you want the big bucks then you gotta go other route. If you want to talk about anything regarding this, i'm willing to share notes or whatever via PM.
Finance if you know how to network and be social, participate in clubs, etc., if you want to work in banking, finance is optimal path.
im studying economics but its not business, but i think in the us the separation is different so idkWhat's better to study at uni? I wanna pick comp sci for the money but I watch day in the life of a software engineer videos and that shit looks boring asf. On the other hand, many ppl are saying business is too general and not worth going to uni for.
Yeah but is it really fullfilling to receive oldugly sick people forconsultations
Accounting is shit at the start (as most careers) but requires half the time and effort to study in comparison to dermatology.
Respect to med school students they have to go through like 10+ years of education
Web development is seriously oversaturated. There are many less known niches within embedded systems/data science/cybersecurity out there, that have high demand
Finance is best end of story.What's better to study at uni? I wanna pick comp sci for the money but I watch day in the life of a software engineer videos and that shit looks boring asf. On the other hand, many ppl are saying business is too general and not worth going to uni for.
Also this ^
fr? what are some good finance jobs, but tbh id rather get a high paying salary at the start cuz the more money when younger the better
Average US software engineer makes 100k. What are you on about.
Define good.
Good as in high paying salary, dont really care about wlb
Canada, I want to go into finance because I feel like its less stressful and I like the social aspect of it compared to computer science
