Studies and Finance

Being an economics student myself, I can only say that if you're terrible at maths (even though this per se doesn't mean anything, you could've had bad teachers or studied the wrong way) you should avoid economics. The amount of maths involved depends on the field (with finance and economics being the most math intensive, and business administration and such ones the least), but overall I wouldn't recommend if you don't like formulas or mathematical analysis. Keep in mind that economics among the social sciences is the one closest to be a natural science. If that fascinates you though go for it, if the passion is big enough you can overcome the problems though. About law the good thing is that it gives you many other possibilities than to be a lawyer, being it a magistrate, a regulator and so on, even though the lawyer is the most obvious and common choice. History seem to be the best choice for you, but you should consider also job opportunities.I can't think of much other than being a teacher or a researcher, but maybe you do.

Can't say much about your savings other than talking to a financial advisor. If you just keep the money there a bank account is useless. You can either buy investment grade government bonds (which usually yield a bit more than bank deposits) or go for investment funds with low risk profile. In any case you should ask a financial advisor for more detailed guidance as for specific instruments. Hope this helps

Thanks for the long reply. Yeah I completely gave up on anything economics-related, I'm too far behind when it comes to Math. I'll look into the other Law job possibilities, I thought basically all you could with it was become a lawyer, but apparently there's more to it, thanks for the heads-up. History seems like a good choice indeed, but the job opportunities problem is always present. Not sure if I have the profile of a teacher, and other than that there's not much you can do with a degree like it. And I guess that no matter the degree I choose, I can always keep reading books about History until I'm knowledgeable enough to write a book or something.

I'm not sure how it is in your country but most politicians at the state and federal level here in the US have law degrees.

Yeah, giving up on making that your primary field of studying doesn't mean that you should give up entirely on it. It's really hard to make a job of your passion, just stick with something you can tolerate or like enough to do it and manage your free time for the things you really like and want to do. That's the key
