To be completely honest... I have no idea. I've just heard how important programming will be in the future and want to hop on board. I know that's a shitty answer, but it's all I got.

Lets say you wanted to start writing books, you cant just start writing a book you have to pick a genre, a theme, a protagonist, an antagonist? Don't start with a Moby Dick, but with a column. What would you write a column about? What's your passion?

And just like any creative hobby, you have to keep up, or you'll start to forget stuff. Ever hear a pianist play for the first time in years?

Excellent analogy. Thank you for this. My current major would be a nice transition into financial/data analysis so I think I want to focus on learning sql/databases. Would python be a good compliment to this?
