should i major in finance or accounting in college? some things about me:

i love math! i have very strong math skills for my age and this has set me ahead in many logic based classes (ap econ, ap comp sci, all ap math, etc.)

im an incoming freshman into the uf honors program!

i’m def interested in finance but esp with computer science losing people to ai, everyone has shifted to finance. i feel like it’ll be very hard to get a job in finance unless ur like the top 5 in ur school. i like the competitive aspect of it but if i lose id end up without a job

accounting seems a bit more boring with the repetitiveness but at least i’d be guaranteed a job.

what should i do? im planning to major in either accounting or finance and pair it with a math major so i cant do both bc that would be 3 majors. or should i drop math and do accounting and finance? would appreciate any advice!

has anyones younger sibling ever gotten a phone before them? or any similar stories? this happened to me and i’m so mad abt it i was hoping ppl had similar experiences.

(btw i’m not a child, this happened when i was a young teen. im 18 now.)

i have a younger brother who is 2 years younger than me. he got a phone when he was 10. i got one when i was 14. so not only did he get his at an earlier age than me (which i wouldn’t mind too much since ik parents get chiller with age), there were 2 years in between when he had one and i did not. it cost me a lot— no one wanted to be friends with the girl without a phone in all of middle school. i was bullied online and couldn’t even defend myself bc they were posting tiktoks about me— i didn’t have a phone to show proof to anyone. this took a lot from me and affected me in ways i cannot describe— i can’t even let myself think about it now. i have to shove it out of my mind before i think too hard. my life became a joke.

lately, the topic came up and i confronted my narcissistic toxic parents about it. i told them they had sheltered me and had no friends bc of it and it wasn’t fair of them to do that to me. they said it was because they were worried about me academically and that i would fall behind and get distracted if i had a phone. however, they didn’t feel the same way about him. reading this, it sounds like he is a straight A student and i am a C student. WRONG. both of us r smart, we’re known for being smart in our grades. both of us have STRAIGHT AS. and they’re sitting here telling me they thought he was academically enough and i wasn’t. every time i get reminded of everything i went through in middle school for them to not even acknowledge it and justify what they did, i get so angry. would really appreciate knowing im not alone in this and that other ppl have gone through similar situations, or advice. thank you for reading.
