LOL the good news for you is, most would probably end up earning around $35k-$40k on their first yr as some sort of "coffee maker" or "lets blame it on the new kid"FTO99R wrote:Yeh all my mates are doing businees and they're going to be graduated and probably earning over 50k by the start of next year.

Hope you didn't fail mate. If so not end of the world, just get a job and retake the subject part time while working.
I finished a double degree in Accounting and IS a couple of years ago and can vouch for sh*t Finance sector graduate wages. Up here I started on $28,000 in my first year out, thankfully though closer to 18 months later I'm earning over a fair bit more than that though still below the average wage.
