    Hello. I'm a college student who is confused about what to major in. I would liked to know what majors/jobs all of you have so that one day I will be able to afford exotic cars like you. Thanks in advance and any advice that you give me is significantly appreciated. Thanks, Richy

    this has been asked so many times and it only comes down to: follow through what you are passionate about. nothing else will matter how others found their claim to fame.

    ok thanks. Yes, I did try searching but 90% of the threads ended up going off topic. I was considering pharmacy, anything else out there that you can do in less than 8 yrs?

    Sales. You don't have to spend 8 years in school, you can make a living from the first month, every field has a sales side, you can take your growing skill set with you wherever you go. It will help when you want to buy or sell something, like a house or car, you'll be able to read people and know if they're being honest and pound for pound you can earn a very, very nice "wage" for either little work {once you become established} or for just landing the right job with the right people.

    Well you have to decide on your own where you good at and feel comfartable at. Its always two side everywhere. You have 40 students graduate from the final year of college (for example in IT) do you think all get succeded in field? NO. You must know what you like and go with your brain and heart otherwise no matter what area you will graduate in still there will be no success. Everyone is different with different situation and circumstances there is no way you can suggest someone what to do untill you know almost everything of there person. You should seek the advise form the people who are close to you and then make the decission on your own. To own the ferrari is not the paramaters of success.(I can prove) its good to own yes but you don't want to go for something to just own the ferrari and you have no interest in the field in few years.

    I just followed what I was most interested in. All the "rich guys" have something behind them that's been igniting fire under their asses. That can be anything from wanting a big mansion or many cars to wealth, financing a expensive hobby or just because they use their heads and comes up with clever stuff.



    What drives me is Porsche Carrera GT and Ferrari F40, and the need to bring my ideas to life.

    Ok. Thanks for your replies, much appreciated. What are some majors that are hot right now/in demand/marketable? I believe this is a somewhat more appropriate question

    Seriously, there are hundreds of posts just like yours asking the same question! They are first time posters on this forum too. Why don't you just stick around for a while and search? Or even read some of the other posts before asking about education in ducks.
