the FP designation is a good one to go for since you have the option to choose the retirement planning route and everyone retires some point in their lives so the industry is not bad at all in that regards.

FP can branch off into many things like tax, investment, etc so it depends what you have a genuine interest for.

I work for a bank and I know they've cleaned up a lot of the under-performing FP's but the market is still out there.

In banking, you will never be finished with courses. If the FP route turns out shitty, you can do a CIM/do branch banking etc. Loads of opportunities given that you're a hard worker and good with people.
