Is this a useless degree? Some people say it is and some people say it isn't. Thanks a lot for your advice.?

I'm a recent high school grad and have don't really have an interest in anything. Just recently I鈥檝e grown an interest in international business. I know I probably won鈥檛 get the most fun and rewarding career out of it, but I honestly don鈥檛 like anything else. I'm the type of person who knows when I don't like something and I know that I don't like anything because I've done tons and tons of research on every single job and career. I've also taken plenty of classes in anything that I think may interest me. I was home schooled, so I really need some helpful advice. The international business major really appeals to me, but I just want to know if it will be hot in the future. If I attain an international business degree then i really want to open up a business in the future, but i don鈥檛 know what kind...any suggestions as to what might be good for the future? Also, what kinds of jobs should I look forward to in this field? Please, give me as much information as you can. I do know that I have to master a foreign language in order to get ahead of the rest of the pack. I just want reassurance that I am not making the wrong decision鈥? I hope it鈥檚 not a useless degree. Please give me as much advice as you can. Thanks a lot!Is this a useless degree? Some people say it is and some people say it isn't. Thanks a lot for your advice.?
There are tons of people getting degrees in International Business. What makes the difference is deep understanding of a foreign language to go with it. Spanish is usually the easiest for an English speaker to latch onto. Portuguese is probably the second easiest. Is this a useless degree? Some people say it is and some people say it isn't. Thanks a lot for your advice.?
My humble thanks to you!

here are several random thoughts - you need some Technical skills to really push ahead





I think the international Business is good as long as it is not just a bachelors.


If I really wanted this to go I would plan an MBA and then an add on Law degree in international Law. Another alternative would be a CPA
