Right, let's try to make this simple.

First, do you enjoy studying history for the sake of history?

Second, do you want a job absolutely related to your field of study, or are you willing to do other stuff?

Third, describe your general interests.

I would only recommend learning a language if you're genuinely interested in that languages culture. It can be very helpful for landings job. Where are you located? I think Hong Kong is a good place for a teaching career for people that speak English and have a degree.

Also like other people have said in the thread read up on investing/money books.
