Possibly because I'm taking the information that I've gotten from previous Finance courses and online investment and finance articles and applying them to what I've learned and what I'm currently learning. That's the Berkeley difference; we apply what we learn in real time. In so many of my classes here, I've been able to do that--in drama, in sociology, and definitely in finance. So again I feel very confident in my career as a finance specialist--whatever venue that may be. I do know from interning at my job and doing collections that I may want to be a credit counselor, helping people to understand the value of a budget and avoiding overspending and going into debt. And having read Vanessa's blog recently, I must say that this is exactly the type of thinking and planning people need in order to reign in their finances (click on Vanessa's blog to find out what I'm talking about).
Looking at Blackboard, I just realized I missed an opportunity to interact with students virtually; I hope this is something that Berkeley plans to do again. Also, there's a Haiti disaster support group in effect for those students who may have been affected--as we all have, to some degree--by the tragedy that occurred. There was also a vigil; I wasn't able to attend, as I had to work, but I hope some of you were able to.
