Yesterday I started a Master's program for financial planning and investments. I'm nervous but excited!
That's excellent! What exactly interests you about financial planning?
I used to teach, so the idea of teaching individual money management skills is very appealing.
Cool.  So do you plan on being a professor or using your Master's for something else?
I'd like to work for a firm that manages investment portfolios for the "not quite super rich."
What exactly does managing investments entail?
A lot of figuring out what kind of rate of return someone can expect from their investment choices. Math mostly, lol.
How long does it normally take to complete a Master's in that field?
I expect my grad school program to take me less than two years. Online program with fast pacing!
Sweet! Can you get a job right out of college or do you have to intern somewhere?
