I'd say law, cause it has more facettes than just hunting the customer and sell him shit you dont even understand yourself

Good job kiddo, you just proved to everyone that reads your posts that you don't understand finance.

>Protip: just because you don't understand complex financial instruments, doesn't mean that people who actually work in finance share your ignorance


OP, go into Law then transition to Finance later if you feel you've grown tired of practicing Law. Just be warned, securities law (law within finance) is basically just submitting paperwork to regulatory agencies all day, every day. You'll never have to see a court room in securities law, though.

Why do retards literally ask 4chan for life advice?

This is a life-altering decision and you're asking an anime RP board.

why, specifically, do you want to go to law school

It's actually one of the better places where to ask, it feels more real

>I don't really want to pursue a career in finance

Doesn't that answer your question?

Just know you can't get away with being an autist as a lawyer. Be a sociopathic asshat, yeah just still got to be able to talk to people.

If you were one of these guys who just wanted to escape into finance to work with numbers and computers and rarely talk to anyone, you will hate being a lawyer.

I know people delude themselves and say "I can be a tax or IP lawyer man, I'll never have to talk to juries" but the chance is still there that to SURVIVE as a lawyer you need to do Public Defender or Trial.

If you were one of these people who wanted to gun hard and cold call all day looking for fish to buy into your hedge fund, you would be a great lawyer probably. Either way you'd be good, either you'd do Tax or you'd kill it in Trial/Merger.

agree that communication skills are important
the /type/ of communication skills you need, though, depends
if you can't imagine yourself speaking to a jury, then yea, don't be a trial lawyer
but you might thrive in another practice, e.g. a transactional group where interpersonal skills are important but public speaking is not
