My God, there are so many careers out there, who in the world can only choose one. What has weighed heavily on me is what career is right for me. I've thought of a couple that interest me but I want to find out everything there is to know about a financial advisor. The reason I am interested in this field is that all things are equal when it comes to the math behind careers. I also like dealing with people and money, so a job as a financial advisor seems right for me, but I plan to find out as much as I can to make sure there's nothing surprising or getting in the way about what seems like the perfect job for me .I don't know much about this career, only that they can deal with selling securities or managing personal finances or just paying taxes and writing financial reports. What haunts me even more is what I don't know about this career. Are there aspects that I will simply hate? Will I make enough money to support the lifestyle I want? What are the future possibilities for career advancement? These are all questions that will weigh heavily on my decision to become a financial advisor or find a new career. I hope a career as a financial advisor is right for me from what I hear from everyone, it sounds like a great, good field to get into. Throughout this article I intend to find out if this career is actually right for me or if it's time to change my major once again. Since I don't really know what I want to do for the rest of my life, and a career as a financial advisor is just something that came to mind, I'm really hoping that I can find what I need to know to make a decision on whether this is what I want. I want it to be my life. The first point I would like… middle of the paper… shadow work as a financial advisor and really put myself in their shoes to see if this is 100% what I want for my life. I feel like this is the best way to get a real-life feel for a career and maybe make a couple of friends in the industry, all in the same day.
