[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Best major for people not smart enough to do math or physics and not invested/intellectual enough to excel in history or the humanities. [/quote]

Best major for those who want a job after graduation perhaps. [/quote]
Any math major is better at a finance job than an Econ major.

It’s cute that Econ majors have to pretend they do anything productive in those four years, but the truth is all these firms have to give boot camps on trading or whatever investment strategy they use anyway to their new hires.

Econ is a great degree for people who are just smart enough but have no passions and are too lazy to try anything that doesn’t have a simple path.[/quote]

Tell us where the Econ major hurt you.[/quote]
None. I just recognize that they weren’t very intelligent people and clearly didn’t have much reason to go to college other than to drink for 4 years[/quote]

I think that probably says more about the institution you were qualified to attend than the population of econ majors. [/quote] 
The institution is one you’d want your kids to attend. Fun fact: we can disagree and you don’t have to assume I have an insignificant pedigree.[/quote]

I think I'll assume that anyways, thanks.  Anyone who went to an institution where they take a non representative sample and apply it to an entire population with 100% assurance better use almond milk when they make my latte this morning.  [/quote]
How great, you took an intro stats class. Was it a major requirement? Next you’ll tell me about the null hypothesis! So exciting  :roll: [/quote]
