Economics has the answer to every political and social problem and mate, your video just shows only 0.0001% of what economics can do =D great job!

[WillWeSeeDivinity]

For the bachelor's degree, the only jobs available are in finance, not economics. People with economics BAs get finance jobs if anything. Finance BAs have all the knowledge of monetary value in the economics BA plus far more and with none of the useless abstractions. That's my assessment after finishing the economics BA and minoring in finance, so I'm saying I would definitely do finance instead if I could do it over again. Either way, do advanced math courses so you can apply to grad school.

@vrachtwagen3000 Ops, I meant "like Danielderbyshire said"...XD

@vrachtwagen3000 Actually, most economist model problems with realistic parameters, otherwise there's no reason to model it. Also, modeling does allow us to see how people/things behave relative to other things/people. And like Vrachtwagen said, we turn towards econometrics for a more precise quantitative answer. Finally, economist already have the answer to all the boys questions, most people just don't listen...
