As a financial manager you'd prepare financial reports or direct their preparation, direct investment activity, and create cash management strategies. Employment in the field of finance is growing as fast as most occupations, with an anticipated 8 percent growth between 2008 and 2018. A degree in finance can start you in this career, where financial managers in securities can earn nearly $135,000 in median annual wages, and those working for local government agencies can earn over $78,500.
