    I hate to say this, but I think there is a lot of math.

    I think on your 1st year, you would take the basic math classes that every business student takes (Calculus with business applications). After that in sophomore year, you would have to take a few accounting classes. These Accounting classes have lots of math (especially word problems). After that you take finance class. I think you still have to do math in those classes (this one I'm not sure).

    So I guess you have lots and lots of math. The math is not too bad. It is not like engineering math. It is just simple math.

    I am a accounting student so most of my classes are with finance people.

    Sounds like you have all the qualities to be a successful counselor in financial matters, but not the personality of a salesperson. Have you ever thought about teaching at a local community college, or working for a credit counseling place?

    as you probably know, sales is king in financial services.

    First step would be to put my monthly budget down on paper. Once I figured out where my money was going, I would look for ways to stop wasting any of it, and search around for some good investment vehicles. Once that was done, I would probably seek out a professional for advice…

    It is not in your list but I would research the "Irish Miracle" essentially the effect tax cuts have on the overall economy.
    Of the above listed topics I would choose Financial Planning. I would then research the effects of the baby boomers starting to convert securities into liquid assets effect on the stock market as well as bond market over the next 20 years.
    It is something I am certainly keeping my eye on.
