I bet he comes back with data from payscale.

Inmotion, if you truly believe that the words of a couple anonymous people on a message board are influencing the masses you’re a fool. The reason people have that assumption is because it is relatively true. At my school finance majors have dropped 30% due to the economic crisis. Accounting majors have risen 40%.

I was at a banquet on Friday and he partner at the firm I work for told me they are paying for the mistake of not hiring enough people the past few years.

Accounting is a much more secure field than Finance. End of story.

Furthermore, what first hand experience do you have with either fields?
