- This comment traveled through time
dont know what you want to be when you grow up? business major is broadly useful for anyone. everyone's life would be improved by picking up a college textbook on finance, for example.
- personal finance book:
  
  "be born rich and with good parents, lol"
  
  "How to buy a house: sell the house you currently own, and buy a new one."
- Useless information that is A. common sense B. easily searchable online or C. provided by befriending an actual business owner D. through work experience. Most of the degree is actually learning sociopathic tricks, like how to handshake or posture to intimidate
  
  Business majors are pretty much destined to become dusty middle managers because they lack creativity or brains
  
  Edit: Pro-tip, if you're smart and pedantic at least pick law... Then you have some chance of helping someone. Business degrees are for failed entrepreneurs, they further entrench the notion higher education is a joke
  
  Can't help but feel like this was written and upvoted by people sitting comfortably on the peak of the Dunning-Kruger curve.

  Never took a business class but I don't think that's taught at university.

- STEM majors like to make fun of business majors for having easier homework
  
  STEM majors like to make fun of business majors for contributing nothing but frustration to society

- Business degrees are many college students' backup plan if their degree of choice is too difficult for them.
  
  It was a running joke at Uni that Engineering was pre-business.

- Business majors picked their course of study based on their availability to attend parties.
- Business is one of the majors people make fun of for being a useless degree that teaches nothing.
  
  But surprisingly useful to signal to hr that you aren't just any moron, you're their moron 💋
  
  Bonus,
  
  What they think they look like, what they're actually like
  
  It was the default major for our football team.
- Business degrees have a curriculum designed for toddlers to make sure they have plenty of time to go to their frat parties on the weekend.
The running joke at some universities used to be to direct people to the business school when they asked for directions to daycare.
