Poorly, I haven’t studied in a while. it’s hybrid for now, but I’m downsizing on everything so I can save up enough money. Either I transfer with the company or the right akiya home comes up on my radar.

In the supporting business units yes, it helps you to stand out to having a finance background but it’s not mandatory. Easiest way into the finance industry would be sales and/or a strong knowledge of accounting. That’ll give you a solid foundation to learn advanced financial concepts like WACC, APV, EBIDTA ETC.

You trying to get into the industry breh?

I was just curious about how hard/easy it would be to get into the industry

For example maybe there is like a accounting or finance cert where it could push me to the front of the line over others or maybe getting a fin/accounting masters

But I’m kinda all over the place right now lookin for damn near anything that sounds remotely interesting
