What buisness careers pay you the most?

<p>Just wondering</p>

<p>Entrepreneurship, because majoring in it will automatically make you something of such talent. If you major in business, you're all business, as they say.</p>

<p>So being an entrepreneur will make you the CEO of a company, and companies will only hire entrepreneurship majors just to become the head of the company. So if you major in something like human resource, you're stuck hiring and firing people for the rest of your lives. Even worse, if you don't major something in business, you'll never sucessed in business.</p>

<p>You should have learned that in your business school, they do this kind of brain-washing... i mean teaching throughout your entire 4 years in college, almost 24/7.</p>

<p>geevaarrr.</p>

<p>As I know Finance. And potentially entrepreneurship of course, if you start your own business :)</p>

<p>abcboy70. I don’t know if your answer was ironic or serious but as I remember you have showed disrespect towards entrepreneurship in other thread. Smart boy, geevaarrr is not the student of business school, I know that you are very bright and guess many things but it's a fact. So he can't be informed about it.</p>

<p>abcboy, </p>

<p>enough already, give it up... quit being a bigot.</p>

<p>entrepreneurship can only be taught so much, u must have a natural ability and interest in the field.</p>

<p>anybody can be a mathematician, but it will ultimately be the guy that was born a math genious that will come up with an awesome formula.</p>

<p>"anybody can be a mathematician"</p>

<p>anybody can make such statement.</p>

<p>there is no clear cut answer. even the best car salesman can make more than an investment banker, although it is rare. however, car salesmen don't have to work insane hours.</p>

<p>when it's all said and done, if you become very good at one thing, then you will rake in the dough. doesn't matter which career.</p>

Hedge fund managers make crazy money..
<a href="http://www.wsws.org/articles/2005/jun2005/hedg-j09.shtml%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://www.wsws.org/articles/2005/jun2005/hedg-j09.shtml&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p>

<p>People who know real estate have a habit of generating income too. And unlike their banking counterparts, they're not paid with salary. Nor do they necessarily have to work insane hours all the time.</p>

<p>hedge funds/private equity directors make the most money
but there is an extremely slim chance to get into that field</p>

<p>Ibankers obviously make a lot of money as well</p>

<p>Every field that pays you a crapload is not only extremely demanding but extremely difficult to get in.</p>

<p>Finance and accounting pay the most for business majors.</p>

<p>Of course i-banking pays the most, but not if you look at dollars per hour. Typical college hire starting salaries with a Big Four firm are around $52-58k. Most likely the same for consulting firms and other client services jobs. Partners at these companies make crazy money.</p>

Well this is just for the first year. If you look at the bonuses you will make in later years, the hourly will be very high as well. A managing director at Goldman could make 20 MM/year. 20MM/(70 x 51) = 5602.21/hr!</p>

<p>abcboy, your 100% wrong. your never stuck. what degree you have is part of your success, but in all actuality it doesnt mean ****. there is no best business degree. Any business degree will do as long as you take the next step and get ur MBA or even further. Its not your degree that gets you places, its your experiences and history in the business.</p>

<p>Snakes got it right, ABC child is overrating how much the major you actually pick in college means in the real world. It's hard to blame him though, he's very inexperienced and has not been active in the job market or job search yet.</p>

<p>seriously snake and dawgie, you think he's serious?</p>

<p>Here's the reality: if you get an entry-level job in any business-related field, be it accountant or inventory analyst or sales clerk, and if you are extremely talented, your talent will show and you will sooner or later be making a significant amount of money. your major will determine what job you get initially, and even if you do major in say art history, if you're really talented there are still finance and other jobs you will be able to get.</p>

<p>Honestly i dont know if he is serious, but i know he wont go anywhere in life. Were gonna see him performing on 3rd street Santa Monica someday.</p>

<p>Um entrepreneurship...maybe if you're Steve Jobs. But for the rest of us, corporate law or finance.</p>

<p>anyone know how much, on average, can a retail manager make of a high-end store. (assuming he/she graduated from say, a top 30 school)?</p>

<p>so far, the entrepreneurship and business management classes ive taken are utterly useless. they are only useful if u actually do case studies and business plans and such...</p>

<p>A graduate from a top 30 school would not want to be a retail store manager. but if you want to know, the large box stores....home depot, lowes, best buy, etc...are the ones who will most likely be paid the most at about 100k plus bonus ( usually from 20%-60% but bonus is extremely hard to meet with the aggressive plans corporate expects for the store) You need to learn more about it, retail is really one of the worst jobs. You think an ibanker works alot.....there are many retail assistant managers and store managers that work nearly or just as much for a lot less money</p>
