out of all of my friends who have taken "generic post secondary" they all make less than i do by about $12 an hour (with no benefits) or they dont even have a job.
You must file the yearly taxes yourself...

Last time I checked accountants needed to know a thing or two about business, taxes, finance, fraud prevention etc.

Are you telling me, as an accountant I wasted my time in post secondary?


On Topic:

If you take arts, your best bet for a career is a teacher...
If you take general business, you can atleast have some text book skills in being a store manager
If you go to trade school, only options are for a job in trades
If you become a science major, either become a doctor , lab assistant and hopefully make researcher
