I uncovered the resource in the box below recently when I was searching for a fresh career. I was in a dead-end job but I wasn't sure what I wanted to do or how to get there. The tips and tricks on the site helped me to settle on my fresh career, and gave me some good thoughts about how to begin.
Answer 2 :
Both careers have to good with math. Being said , Both is a good career. Depend on you IT industry involves fast changing , so your skills have to update constantly before it becomes obsolete.
Answer 3 :
Which do you enjoy? The world will always need accountants. The work is not that exciting but the rules of the game don't change that much. It's a safe choice but it can be a grind. As a software developer you get to design and create things. It's a little more interesting but there's always some new technology/language/architecture that you must overcome. If you can maintain a certain level of proficiency you'll have just as much job security as an accountant and you might enjoy the creative aspect.
Answer 4 :
Well with being a software developer you could in a sense work anywhere in the world. Theres lots of freelance programming sites where you can make from $50-$4000 for making a programme for someone so say if you couldn't find a job or you get fired etc etc you can live off working for free lance which I think will be class when Im finished college until I get a job and even when I get a job if I want to make a couple of more dollars I just make a programme and sell it. I dont know much about accounting
