      If you want to go into finance, like banking and stocks and shares and things, doing science at university can be good because you use lots of maths and learn how to find the answers to problems. There are other things that you can do at university that are more directly related, like economics or accounting or business, and to get into those courses you probably need to study science at school. Bitcoin is a special case, I think, and if you want to get into that in a big way, computer science is a very good idea.

      One thing I definitely think you should consider is whether you would enjoy any of this. It’s important to have fun sometimes with what you do: that’s why I like science so much.
