With an economics
degree you can work in
a variety of different
fields from finance and
banking, public policy,
sales and marketing, civil
service (government
departments, the Federal
Reserve, etc.), insurance
and actuarial work, etc.
You can also go on to do
further studies in
economics, political
science, business, or a
variety of other fields.
If you're certain your
interest is in the
business world, a
business degree may be
a better fit, but an
economics degree does
open a lot of doors.

ADVANTAGES

1. You will learn a
lot of skills and
knowledge that you can
apply to other jobs or to
your personal life.
Learning about interest
rates, exchange rates,
economic indicators and
equity markets can help
you make better
decisions about
investing and obtaining
mortgages. The
statistical skills I gained
I've used again and
again, mostly in
business settings.

If you are a Forex trader i think you'll be interested in this part.


2. Because economics
teaches students how
to understand and spot
secondary effects and
possible unintended
consequences. This may
seem relatively
unimportant, but it's the
most useful thing I've
received from my
economics training. Most
economics problems
have secondary effects
- the deadweight loss
from taxation is one
such secondary effect. A
government creates a
tax to pay for some
needed social program,
but the secondary
effect of that tax is that
it changes people's
behavior, causing
economic growth to
slow. By learning more
about economics and
working on hundreds of
economics problems,
you learn the skill of
being able to spot
secondary effects and
unintended
consequences in other
areas. This can help you
make better decisions
about your personal life
and make you more
valuable to business;
"what are the possible
secondary effects from
the proposed marketing
campaign?" It likely
won't help you get a
job, but being able to
spot and understand the
importance of
secondary effects, it
may help you keep a job
or earn a promotion
that much faster.


3. Because you will learn
more about how the
world works. You will
learn more about the
impact decisions have
on the firm, industry,
and national level. You
will learn more about
the impact of
international trade, both
good and bad. You will
discover the effect
government policies
have on the economy
and on employment;
again both good and
bad. It will help you
make more informed
decisions as both a
consumer and as a
voter. Furthermore, I
personally believe that
having a more
economically literate set
of bureaucrats,
politicians, and
journalists would be
great for society - so
long as they always
keep an open mind
about what they've
been exposed to.
Economics, when done
properly, shouldn't so
much tell people what to
think, rather it should
give them tools about
how to think of things
more clearly and
realizing the
assumptions they may
be making.

Naija men sha. turned their ugly spaghetti arm, engine eyes looking RAFIKI [Simba] sef down [b]and you turn into a "big ynash, dirty, hungry and scary chick". Its something called standard, and you were sadly below theirs. [/s][oofience def intended][/quote]LWKMD hmmm dey didn't turn me on so i zoomed off. [noo oofiences]

Rocktation:
Poster, are we going to die immediately after spending the money? Life is supposed to go on, remember? Besides you termed it 'wedding money', didn't you? Which means that the sum was kept aside specifically for that purpose.

To some that money includes some borrowed money too just to meet irrelevant needs

[b]The desire of every woman is to someday
be called Mrs.


Our culture has made
it in such a way that girls now
believe they are worthless without
marriage.


I see girls go out of their
way just to get a man to take them
to the altar. These days, women no
longer wait for a man to talk about
marriage, they now take it upon
themselves to ask that question;
will you marry me?   

Our people, while accepting the religion
of the white man, also accepted their
way of doing things.


Most of the big society weddings you
see on the pages of newspapers are
now our 9ja babes model of a wedding.

These
days, women push men to the point
that they go broke all in the name of
wedding. You see a man who earns
N200,000 as monthly salary going for
an event center of N5 million, just
because she has to prove a point to her
friends.

They all need a particular make up artist forgetting the fact that they don't worth it.

The latest now is every 9ja babe want their honeymoon outside 9ja so the broke ones even borrow money just to fly over to the states for honeymoon just for the fun of it.



That why many 9ja people go broke,   after their wedding !
