Hi everyone, I'm new to the site but I am a long time listener of the podcast. Anyway, I am transferring to a University soon and will be pursuing a degree in Business Administration and I have the option in specializing in four categories: Finance, Accounting, Marketing, and Information Systems. I want to obtain a valuable degree and find a nice paying job and plan to use it to save up enough capital to get started with real estate investing which I am very passionate about. My question is: Which degree specialization mentioned above, if any,  will benefit my real estate investing journey? I am planning on also getting a Real Estate minor which is ranked as one of the best in the country but I am uncertain as to what specialization will suit me best. Any help is appreciated!

@Raul Barnes  Read Rich Dad Poor Dad,  I have a degree from an Ivy U. Opened doors but I smartened up enough to close those doors before they locked me in. If you are looking for the 'security" of a job. go for biz or finance and then get a MS in specific area. If you want to eventually get wealthy, apprentice or work with someone in RE and put in your time, Just my 2 cents.
