So... what do I do? #Spring25

I am attending a fairly prestigious university this fall and I have confidence it will help me succeed. However, the financial aid I received is not as helpful as I had hoped. Not to toot my own horn, but I've always been a smart kid and it feels much more fitting to me to take on this...

For someone pursuing a career in finance, what are the biggest lessons you’ve learned about yourself and the industry that helped you decide which sector to work in—especially when factoring in personal work ethic, natural strengths, and the realities of being a Black man in corporate America? As well as how do you see the sustainability of finance careers evolving with the rise of AI?

I am currently committed to attend Middlebury College in Vermont, and am looking to pursue a career in finance with a major of Economics.
