I am intrigued by the whole concept of business. What it takes to manage a company, how to manage it right, finances, etc. I'm currently a junior in high school and I'm thinking of majoring in Business in college.
However, my parents disagree because they feel that Business is something vague and that anybody can do it. They told me that any guy can go open up a business and make a lot of money, like a dry cleaner or a flower shop or something. They want me to be a doctor because a doctor has to study for many years and takes a lot of hard work, and that business doesn't really have anything special because you don't have to study like anatomical terms and stuff like that. But I'm talking about big business, not small stuff. Investing, real estate, managing a big company, etc.
What are your thoughts? Do you feel anyone can do it, or do you feel it requires special skills?
