            <title>Finance Management for College Student</title>
            <link>http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/4593079</link>
            <description>How should a college student(myself) manage their money? Would it be too soon to start investing in something or anything at all? It&amp;#39;s probably not smart to just keep all money in a savings account, is it?</description>

            <title>MacBook Air High Sierra Slow Boot</title>
            <link>http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/4501208</link>
            <description>Hi, &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Is anyone familiar with the issue stated in topic? I use a MacBook Air 2017 but since I updated to High Sierra my boot has became slow. I read somewhere that I could disable TRIM but would that void my warranty? Should I still be updating to High Sierra supplemental update? Would it make it even slower?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thanks in advance.</description>

            <title>What degree to choose at university</title>
            <link>http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/4406863</link>
            <description>Hi guys, need some advice. I&amp;#39;m a recent June 17 A-level graduate and got full A*s in the sciences and math. I personally enjoy maths a lot but unfortunately I do not have the means to pursue a maths degree abroad and neither was I accepted into public universities to read math. My options now are only private universities and I hope to do something that has good prospect ( important, but not most important) and something that hopefully allows me to pursue postgrad in math (they generally ask for 3 semesters of calculus). &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I&amp;#39;ve considered a couple options and would like some insight:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1) Engineering - appreciate and adore the math component but indifferent to working as engineer (though I hope this substantial math can get me to postgrad) due to the stigma that engineers &amp;quot;don&amp;#39;t work in clean environment&amp;quot; (No offense engineers, please correct me if I&amp;#39;m wrong)&lt;br /&gt;2) Economics- the university I&amp;#39;m eyeing on offers econs that has substantial maths component, but I&amp;#39;m unsure of the career prospect and hope someone can advice. Am I limited to banking only? Need more insights on this.&lt;br /&gt;3) Accounting - this is presumably the course that has the least maths component that would not meet requirement for Masters in Maths but if I were to be realistic it offers great prospect if I&amp;#39;m not fortunate enough to be able to go post-graduate in mathematical field, though I also understand I do not need an accounting degree to be an accountant. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thank you all for taking your time to read my post and hopefully I can get some advice from you guys. I hope someone can also give me some guidance on how I should choose what to study, as well as shed light on the prospects of economics graduate. Should I pursue option 3, and hence turn maths into my interest/hobby instead?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Best wishes.</description>
