What are the best ways to save for college?

After graduating with my two-year degree, and working for 2-3 years, I plan on returning to college and earning my bachelor's degree. What are some ways that I can save/earn money for college? Investing, working a part-time job, etc.

What would be the benefits of pursuing an HR management certificate?

I'm getting my associate's in accounting in May 2023. I discovered that if I took 3 more classes I could earn an HR management certificate. I'm really tempted by this, but it would cost about $2400. I'm also not sure if it would be worth it in the long run, as I might not get a bachelor's in...

How do you answer "Where do you see yourself in 5, 10, etc. years?"

I'm not really sure how to answer this question without hurting my chances of getting hired. I plan on returning to school and getting my bachelor's degree. I'm not sure what I will be getting my bachelor's in.
