That's good to know that you are in progress towards becoming better. Oh that's cool about YouTube. What's your YouTube about?

All about money. So I have always worked in technology, but I went back to school in my 20's and got my finance degree because I needed to get better with money. My youtube is a way for me to keep up with my investing skills.

Oh that's nice! I am from a healthcare background but I want to study computer science but I also want Finance. I've been reading reddit and they say it is best to study CS as a major with Finance as your minor. I just want to ask this because you worked in tech and studied Finance. I would like to ask what's the best move to do?

Rather than think of a particular field like CS or Finance, think of the day job. What tasks do you want to do everyday: writing code, reading/building spreadsheets, raising money. Before you start studying something try and preview what the actual end job looks like and if you can visualize yourself doing that for 10 years.

Oh wow that's the most sensible advice I have received! Okay I will do that. Hopefully, I can wrap myself with a good decision. Thank you!

That's interesting. I use AJ Bell which is a brokerage in UK. Any recommendations for dividend stocks? I like Pfizer and Coca Cola atm.

These are just my opinions, not financial advice. I like: PFE, CAH, TD, WBA, CVX, UPS. Strong brand names are great for divs, but not as much growth: Costco, Coke-Cola, Caterpillar, Starbucks, Mcdonalds
