Why did you go into Business?

<p>When I was younger and I thought of business, I thought of being an entrepreneur. As I got older, it was more along the lines of striking it rich in the stock market. But now that I'm exposed to all this i-banking, consulting, sales and trade, etc, etc, I feel that I don't find any of this interesting and that maybe the only reason I liked business in the first place was its correlation with money. And who doesn't want money? Now that I'm in college and I'm taking a broad range of classes, I find myself so much more interested in the humanities, like philosophy or sociology or polisci and whatever else that entails, and everything I take or haven't taken yet but think about really doesn't interest me at all. I start wondering if people actually enjoy business classes (accounting, finance, statistics) or if it's just something you have to know, so you learn it.</p>

<p>I enjoy business very much, and I am looking forward to starting college this fall. I have self-studied for many many years though, and I enjoy learning new things every day. It's not for everyone, but for those that can hang in there, and most importantly enjoy their work, it is very rewarding.</p>

<p>I absolutely love the stock market. Whether it is learning about how stocks trade or what strategies people use (fundamental/techinal analysis) to maximize their gains, it is all really interesting to me. I was a sophomore in high school when I started looking into the topic and about 20 books and a few years of CNBC under my belt, I still find it extremely fascinating and I still want to find out more...</p>

<p>Intersting that people should think that money and Christianity (or any religion) don't mix. Some of the best business schools in the country are at religious universities:</p>

<p>Notre Dame, Georgetown, Fordham, Pepperdine, Emory, Boston College, Santa Clara and Brigham Young come to mind--and University of Southern California was a baptist school years ago.</p>
