how smart are you?
In tennessee tellers are making 14-15 dollars an hour. Entry level AML with degree is making 40k. If you want to get into the nitty gritty and be a badass get a degree in Maths with a minor in Finance, find an internship with an investment company, and then get your CFA.

you can write your ticket with a CFA certification and you don't do much sales work. CFA is pretty difficult though. takes about 1000 hours of your life. There are a few colleges that offer a CFA track along with a degree in finance

CPA is always an option with accounting degree
AML and compliance jobs do offer steady reliable income. Only directors make over 100k

Or just a bunch of coursework. I'm just a class short myself, with a computer science degree.

The obstacle is that there's no real accounting career path for people trying to get into it from another field. I can't go do audit for $60,000 per year with Hunter and Chasity who just got out of Ole Miss business school. They wouldn't have me even if I wanted to do it.
