I wish I knew which types of degrees would help me make the most money while also allowing me to have a good time working.
Many engineering jobs pay very well. I you interested in any type of engineering like computer engineering?
I am not sure. Do computer engineers have to engineer computers? Because if so, I don't like it. If I could like build apps or make logos, I might love it.
Oh I see, well then I think computer science might be perfect for you then!
Yeah, maybe. I looked at that though. Seems like I would not make much unless I knew people. I want to start out at a high paying job. I have dreams.
It looks like the starting salaries range between 50k and 68k. Is that a good starting point for you?
IDK. Maybe that is alright. I want to make enough to start investing before my 25th birthday. I am minoring in finance. I don't want to work as an accountant, but I want to have a good job to make a lot of money so I can set myself up to be rich before I start a family.
It looks like to be considered rich you need to make $300,000 a year. Maybe once you learn computer science you can make an amazing application
Wow I didn't know there was a price point in being rich. That is enlightening. I plan to have a very thorough portfolio and a lot of recommendation letters before I finish college. I also plan to join the Phi Theta Kappa so I can be a part of the honor society and do a lot of volunteer work. I am hoping that will help me get a good paying job.
You would be well on your way by joining Phi Theta Kappa. You could earn scholarship opportunities up to $90,000. Just make sure to keep that 3.5 GPA
I plan to have at least a 3.9 if I am unable to uphold a constant 4.0. I am worried about packing. I have no idea what all I need. I am working on making a list. Like finger nail clippers, a small sewing kit, paper and notebooks, my laptop and phone, clothes.. I am not sure what else I need to have ready when I leave.
