Plans for the future

February 24th, 2009 at 04:11 am

I can't remember if I wrote about this or not (and I am too lazy to look) but I will go ahead:

I finally convinced my boyfriend to open a Roth IRA. He opened it awhile ago (not that long, less than one month) and today made another contribution to it. I am very proud of him.

I have been thinking a lot lately about what I wanted to do after I finished my undergrad. I know I want to go onto graduate school and I always thought I would get my masters in Math. Then I would go to work for the FBI or NSA or even CIA. But I have been rethinking that plan, partly thanks to this wonderful forum (I have learned so much from this forum!) and the economic situation I have learned a lot about finances and have become very interested in the financial world. So I have been thinking that instead of getting my masters in Math, I get it in finances or accounting (if it is even offered... I haven't checked yet) and go into that field.

I'll look into it but I haven't made any decisions yet. Still thinking.

    i was the same, i was always very interested in law, and then business for a bit, and the business side of it has slowly merged into finances and financial planning. i guess the question is if your interest can last the many years you will be in your career?

    I'm wondering how long I'll be interested in finances too. I have been interested in law since I was a little girl. It was always just a matter of what aspect of law to go into. I love dealing with numbers so I am pretty sure I'll be happing in finance. Maybe I can do both? The IRS has a law enforcement team. I need to talk with my advisor. I still have about 2 years until I graduate college so I have some time.
