Major Debate [I Am Going Back to College]

I'm going back to school but I'm torn between degrees.

I'm going for Accounting and Finance but I'm torn between them. I eventually want to end up in international trade/business or possibly in a finance company to help small businesses get out of dire straights.

I want to move abroad with my family eventually.

Ideas?

Here's an idea in generalized broad strokes - accounting would be more suited to introverted personality type vs Finance would be extroverted... not sure if I'm right, but maybe sheds some light?

@fun4us2b I'm an amnivert? I think. I'm mostly introverted but I can be extroverted as well.

@darktippedrose Ambivert - I hadn't heard of that before and have to say that describes me as well. If you can tolerate giving presentations and such Finance would be better - but it also depends on the jobs available in the area you are moving to. There's always need for accountant in a small town - Finance is better in a metro area....

@fun4us2b I hate presentations lol. Currently have a problem as my local accounting chapter won't quit dodging my calls.
