[quote=Anonymous]well, i too would remind him to think beyond earning potential. don't forget exploring new ideas, appreciating old ideas, and learning critical thinking, empathy and communication skills. (big fan of your basic liberal arts education here). but there's nothing wrong about considering financial stability too! for financial stability, look for reasonably well-compensated careers that likely cannot be outsourced or automated: civil engineering, veterinary medicine, many healthcare related fields. I don't much about finance; it obviously has huge earning potential if you break big, but I don't know that everyone makes it. I have a couple of classmates who went that route; one had family money and has done quite well for himself. the other is gainfully employed at a big financial institution but hates his life.[/quote]
