but my parents have been managing mine for the last few years that I’ve been working full time. My mother is a manipulating money hungry control freak and won’t even let me have my own bank account.

I just want to get a survey here to understand how hard it is to manage one’s finance so my heart can prepare for what to come. This is really scary for me.

I am considering finance, but all i have done in school is do problems. A lot of it is very difficult. Do finance majors use everything they learned in their jobs? What exactly do they do? How would a finance degree help me after law school?

How does the finance person from the dealership I bought my car make his money?

timmyliao2001 asked:


Here is the deal. I kind of got taken from a shady Persian gentlemen who did the financing for me at my local Honda dealership. So he got me for a higher interest rate, lied to me so I would purchase stuff like extended warranty and gap insurance. My question is this: Based on my original loan the total loan amount of my interest would have been like $12,000 spread out over six years. But I went ahead and paid a large portion of that down and refinanced with a third party - therefore reducing the total interest to something like
$3500 over four years. So here is my question. Does this dishonest finance guy at the dealership get a cut of the original $12,000 and get his money up front? Or will he only get a cut of the total amount of interest I paid on the original loan which was about $1300? I want to know if by refinancing through some other lender if I took money away from him that he was expecting would come to him based on the terms of the original loan?

I am currently doing entry-level finance-related accounting work in NYC, but do not hold a degree in Accounting (just your standard BA from your local not-nationally-recognized college with a lot of finance classload). I really want to get into more of a research analyst position, or something more to do with the management of securities for some type of fund. How do I get my foot in the door?

Because I’m getting multiple answers on this. Some say that it’s only the finance classes you take but the others say that it’s the finance classes plus the supporting courses ( Economics, Accounting and such). Which one is right?

Thanks
