This question is very debatable. Everyone has an opinion. Moreover, there are so many jobs for everyone to do.

After a student has completed his or her secondary education, he or she has to choose a course to study in a University. Parents should not let their children choose a career because at the young age, they have very little experience and knowledge of the future confronting them. For example, some students might be passionate about singing. Do you know how many singers are really successful in Malaysia?

Parents advise them. Children may tell you that when you were young you did not have internet computer technology and you don’t know all these new things. You should tell them that the old people invented them.

The first workable prototype of the Internet came in the late 1960s with the creation of ARPANET, or the Advanced Research Projects Agency Network. Originally funded by the U.S. Department of Defense, ARPANET used packet switching to allow multiple computers to communicate on a single network.

Everyone has to work to earn money to live. Even if you come from a very wealthy family, if you don’t work, your life can be very boring because you have nothing to do.

Although our ultimate aim in life is happiness, but without money you cannot be happy. So, choose a profession that you can easily find employment with good pay. Even if you don’t enjoy managing money, you would not mind if the salary is good. You should be happy if the pay is good.

Among all the employees of any company, the CEO and CFO enjoy the highest salaries and usually they are accountants.

Accountants can easily find employment. Every company needs accountants. Even small businesses need accounting service because they have to submit income tax at the end of every year.

As I said earlier, this question is very debatable and everyone has an opinion. If everyone choose to be accountant, who is going to do the other jobs?

You must bear in mind that every job is important. Even collecting rubbish is important and necessary.

I am a Chartered Civil Engineer and a businessman. After my retirement, I am a full time investor. I think I could have made a lot more money if I have been an accountant.

This is my opinion and you are entitled to your opinion.
