      I've been thinking about it. I'm going to ask around my school see If any of the advisers can me figure out the right direction to take. Thanks for the suggestion though!

        No problem at all. Let me know what you find out, as it could help me out as well.

          When I left for college, I was going to be a History teacher. I took a History of Economics class and changed my major to economics. Had enough credits to graduate in 4 years, but I had a scholarship that would grant 5 so I added a business Admin Major with a minor in accounting. Ended up getting an Accounting degree later and then a Masters in Finance. Economics was great education foundation, but really needed the other business degrees to land a decent job.

          Still kind of wish I had done some teaching along the way, but I read a lot of history as a hobby and that's good enough. My business degrees pay the bills.

            Graduated in July 2013 with a BS in Elementary Education and Middle School Social Studies. I am certified 1-6, 5-12 Social Studies, and K-12 PE. I am also 9 credit hours away from finishing my Sports Management degree.

            Currently teaching 4/5th grade science in a very small town here in SW Missouri. Would like to get into a junior high social studies position and am on the verge of getting a high school soccer program started.

            If you find the right school, you should be able to teach what you want and coach, especially in smaller towns.

              Getting my bachelor's in entrepreneurship next year, then going for a marketing or corporate communications (basically PR) masters.

              I wish we had minors here.

              USA higher education system - EU system (just the structure).

              But the average cost of university in Croatia is $ ~300-400 a year, and I'm also getting money for even attending college. It's expensive as hell in the USA.

                The problem is I'm very good at and love all the liberal arts which don't pay at all . I'm only decent at math and science.
                Then go into the liberal arts that you love. Money cannot buy happiness.

                      I think it would be really cool to get a job with the Cardinals HOF or Baseball HOF.

                      Maybe with a SM degree I could take over the head of my town's parks and rec dept and create an adult baseball league. Hooah!

                      Now I'm only a few months away from graduating with a B.A. in Sports Management. I've gotten an internship with the St. Charles Chill and things are looking up.

                      I'm hoping to get an internship this summer with a minor league baseball team. After hearing Mike Veeck speak, I don't plan on entering the major leagues until many years down the road. I'm looking to work at the ballpark, but not in a cubicle.
                      Two years later...

                      I got that summer internship for Stadium Operations with the River City Rascals, but had to move back home and work at Kmart for over a year.

                      Just yesterday I got a paid internship with the Nashville Sounds in Stadium Operations. So I'm moving to Nashville very soon and my boss is trying to help me find a place to stay. Who knows what will happen after that.
