following the shining light.

i'm in a dilemma and i'm thinking aloud.
should i take
Bachelor in Business management (specializing in Business Finance)
or
Bachelor in Economics and Finance
.
Business mgt has a wider job scope, Its more general but might be TOO general and i might not get a well paying job in future. Probably will get an advance standing so it will only be 2 - 2 1/2 years instead of 3 years. I get to learn more subjects that is errm...more general. i think its pretty easy so i can score better. Get to Major in Finance (only 4 subjects in finance) but the cert only identifies that i have a degree in Management, and not finance.
Management is a skill. So i can use that in any sector that i'm working in. Just that it feels no different from the diploma that i already have.
.
Econs and Finance is more specific. Will probably get a job in the bank which has better prospects and pays me well. Will also get an advance standing, so it will only be 1 1/2 years and the fees will be much cheaper. Will be taking economics and a lot of focus on Finance but Its harder to score. I'll probably get a better paying job with this degree than if i take Management. But its specific. i will really be specializing in Finance. So i'll be Somewhat stuck in the Finance sector. and is that what i really want to do?
And have no friends taking this course. so i have to make new friends all over again heh.
.
BUT! i think management is so general. i probably can get offered the same job with my diploma even without the degree. and i cant work like in banks or whatsoever. on the other hand, econs and finance can land me a job at a bank and IF i dont want to do finance anymore, i can still do something else since the degree dont matter and i already have a diploma.
Both are not really sth i really really really want to do. So in that case, might as well take the better paying one. Besides, i dont mind working in the bank.
.
actually i want to teach (i still have 2 years to decide if i really want to) But MOE might not recognise the degree that i'm taking. So with either one, it might or might not get me a place in NIE.
Seems like i've made a decision? I consulted 4 people. all 4 told me to take Econs and finance.
But the actual fact is that i already applied for business management. Why?! i dont know. i did it just to secure a place first. and at that point, i was desperate to make a decision.
besides, If i chose Econs and finance, and if i change my mind, i'll be too late for the application for business management. BUT if i choose management, and i change my mind, i can still reject and apply for finance because the intake only starts only in January next year.
Should i reject and change course!?
.
Its so confusing!!
What exactly should i take?
Management (Majoring in Business Finance) or Economics and Finance?
(actually either one is fine with me, just that the higher paying one looks more appealing. and also once i earn enough money, i'll be a Tai tai anyways. haha I WISH!)
help me decide pls.. :(
and i pray its what God wants me to do for now as well.
Be a lamp unto my feet and a light unto my path!!! I really need to know.
.
If only, if only. Then i wouldnt have to sell my Old Hp just to pay for my application fee.
If only, if only, Then i would have to think about how am i going to pay for my school fees.
If only, if only. Then i would have just gotten into teaching instead of going to SIM.(which is known for the school that accepts just about anyone. As long as you have money)
If only, if only. Then i would have known exactly what course i should take.
If only if only. Then i would be choosing the Uni instead of the Uni choosing me.
.
haha. i'm not emo-ing now pls.
