    Psychology is my major

    I'm planning on getting a masters in it though and I'm going to get at least a major in economics.

    But anyway, those just average starting salaries, it doesn't mean I can't make a good amount out of college.

      How does all this 'Major' stuff work overthere? How are degrees Structured and is it common to combine 2 or more subjects?

            A BA or BS includes a well rounded education, which includes many different studies. Most people get a minor in something. It takes about a year to take all your minor courses. Some people get two degrees. If you pick a good combination it can pay off well.

              Or you get a Ph.D. in Psych, get some experience and open your own clinic. Make $$$ by silly talks

                        I'm not in it for the money though.

                        Too many people would come in without real problems if I ran a clinic. Though it might make me feel good to stop people *****ing. I don't know. Plus I'd be worried that I'd stop waiting to help my friends with their problems, or treat their problems too impersonally.

                        That is why I will probably use a psych/econ combo for something like Human Resources.

                          People in the Humanities and social sciences (except econ fields) might make less money on average, but we are the ones who get to rule the world

                              That's pitifull, considering most of them choose the major to teach school. I'm sure most of them either can't handle teaching or never get jobs.
