__Free Response Questions__(Include your name with your paragraph) I want to invest or run my own company(ies) in Real Estate Investment-Development, Las Vegas Casino-Resort, Banking, Renewable Energy, Jewelry, Weapons Production, Food, Private Holdings Company and more. No, but I do intend on receiving an MBA. It leaves the opportunity to get a job in many industries, which is helpful in a bad economy when jobs are far and few between. It puts you in high demand because you are very well educated on a specific subject, increasing your potential salary. Christopher Govoruhk

I want to invest in or run multiple companies in Real Estate, Private Holdings, Banking, Energy, Manufacturing, Chemical and Medicine production, Entertainment, Food, and more. As far as I can go. Not necessarily, but it would be very helpful to have a Bachelor's or Master's degree in Business Management or something similar. High paying jobs require a lot of specific education which can only be achieved by college education or progressing through the company. If you want to get into a high paying job fast, you will need a degree. Higher positions in companies require the specific knowledge that such degrees offer. Bradley Sturgeon

I am not entirely sure of what career I may be interested in, but accounting has always sounded interesting as well as running my own company. To be an accountant you need an accounting degree, and to run a company or business it is pretty important to have a degree of some sort of Business Management. The advantages of having a degree make you more experienced and aware of what a job would be like in your field, and would definitely put you in a better place to get a high paying job. If you are totally sure what you want to do for a living, a specific degree can get you there quicker because you have more knowledge than general degrees offer, therefore getting you a higher position faster.

I am interested in possibly becoming an accountant, some type of financial manager, owner of a company, or a manager in a company. Yes, to be an accountant it is preferable to have a degree in accounting and also get your CPA. For a finance manager a degree in economics or finance would help out for this career. Finally, to be a manager or an owner of a company you would most likely need a degree in business administration, management, or marketing. Some advantages to having a college degree are: college graduates make an average of one million dollars more during their life-time than high school graduates, you are more desirable to a company because you endured college and know how to work hard and network, and you possess the qualities and knowledge to succeed in the real world. Some advantages to having a specific degree are: you can get paid more money for having a degree tailored to a certain job, you can get a specifc job more easily than someone with a broader more general degree, you don't need extra training to be qualified, and you have a set goal and purpose of what you want to do with your life.

I am interested in Industrial or Mechanical Engineering but I am still not sure if that would be something I can see myself doing for the rest of my life, would like to explore other options. With that career I would need an engineering degree and could move on to do some post graduate work so I could start working at a higher level as opposed to right out of college. The advantages of just having a degree in anything is that it lets you get into some line of work at a higher starting pay and perhaps even a higher position of authority. The advantages of having a specific degree is being able to go into work witj education of what kind of thing yo will be doing and will be easier to find a job in that particular field.

Although I have not yet completely decided on exactly what career I will pursue, I do have an idea of what I would like to do. I hope to be involved with investing in securities and possibly real estate. A possible career that I feel could fit me well would be a financial consultant of some sort. Otherwise I would like to manage my own business. I would probably require a moderately specific degree for these careers such as an economic, managerial economic, or financial mathematics and statistics degree. There are many advantages to getting a degree in anything. Obviously, one major advantage is the dramatic increase in a person's starting salary. Additionally, a degree will allow a person more opportunities to succeed in life by giving him/her a better chance at finding and maintaining a job and moving forward in his/her career. One advantage of having a specific degree in a certain field is that it would give you an advantage when competing for a job in that field against someone with a broader degree. Also it could help to increase your salary in comparison to those with a broader degree. Lastly, some jobs require a very specific degree so you need one in order to even qualify for it.

I have not really decided what career I really want do have. I have thought about architecture or even some sort of music related business. I just want to keep my options open. I would probably need some sort of math degree if I wanted to pursue architecture. However a business degree would help if I were to open my own business. With a degree, you are able to keep your options open as to what job you can have. You do not want to be trapped into having a job that you do not want to have and at a place you don't like working at. A degree would give you a wider job selection. A specific degree would be important to have if you knew exactly what you wanted to be and wanted to pursue that career. Medical school would be an example. However, if you wanted another career later in life, you wouldn't have many other options. (Sam Morton)

I would probably need a managing degree, marketing, Busniness administration, etc. Having a degree makes the task of getting a job somewhat more simple also an obviouse increase in ones starting salary. Yes, it would help you if you had everything planned out and knew the ecat career you wanted to persue. Otherwise, no because you would be restricted to having jobs that the degree would allow. So therefore you would not be able to change your mind, career wise. (Jennifer cox)
