Which major is more wise to pursue, a major in accounting or a major in finance or both?

As of right now, I am becoming more and more uncertain on what I want to do for a future career. I am having my hands gripped onto a major in accounting but I am having second thoughts. My other alternative majors would be finance and business but I don't have any real hard evidence as in why finance and business majors are better for me than a accounting major.


Finance best answer:

Answer by SpeakerFTD
I would stick with accounting. The other two majors are very soft, and undergraduate degrees in either are not highly valued. Undergraduate business degrees, in particular, are widely viewed as worthless by employers. At least with accounting you get a real skill set than can help you find a job in a tough economy.

Finance
