<p>first of all I love math and am quite good at it and dealing with money really interests me, but I want to have a career that can benefit me financially. Can you go far with accounting? I am currently at a CSU looking to change my major to accounting.</p>
<p>Math has nothing to do with accounting. Accounting can be pretty lucrative. It’s boring as hell though.</p>
<p>Please read through the thread, “Everything you should know or wanted to know about accounting,” found at the top of this forum.</p>
<p>If you enjoy math and would like a career involving it with good salaries, have you considered becoming an actuary? You can read more about it on this link. </p>
