Does A Degree In Economics Limit Me To Banks Or Financial Services Careers?

November 30th, 2009 at 01:11pm Under Economics

I would like to start up ,my own business someday in the future, but i am not sure how a degree in economics will be useful for my career plans .
I will begin my studies in economics at the beginning of September. However, someone mentioned that a degree in economics will lead me to certain careers such as Banking, risk management, portfolio management, financial analyst, insurance etc. To be honest, some of these mentioned careers are not what i ever wanted.
Does any one have a better idea about how a degree in economics could be useful to a self-employed person?
Thank you in advance

What Is A Good Credit Limit For A First Credit Card?

November 16th, 2009 at 08:54am Under Credit

I got my first credit card a couple years ago via Bank of America, and my current credit limit is $9000. Since I don’t have any experience with credit cards in the past, I’m wondering if this is good or not? Is there anyway I can increase this limit? What do most credit card limits start at?

Is It Better For Your Credit To Have Several Credit Cards With Moderate Limit, Or One Card With A High Limit?

November 14th, 2009 at 04:54pm Under Credit

I have zero debt. I also have several credit cards. I am wondering how it will affect my credit to request the highest limit for each card, or if I should cancel all but 2 and have those with high spending limits. Along the same lines, how does “available” credit affect one’s credit score negatively or positively? If I get a $50,000 limit on a card (with 0 balance) but say, go to buy a car, will I be denied because I have too much credit out there?
