Currently I will be entering my junior year in the Business school at the University of Illinois majoring in Finance, my GPA is 3.7 and I am doing an internship with Smith Barney in Chicago as of now; however, I am becoming worried this line of work isn’t for me, simply because I am not necessarily passionate about doing financial reports over and over again for the rest of my life. On the other hand, I am very passionate and knowledgable with sports and have a feeling Sports Finance would be perfect for me. Wondering if anyone could fill me in on how realistic a job in this area would be….also, how I would go about finding such a job? I would greatly appreciate anyone’s opinion. Thanks.
