I'm studying in University for a 3 year degree in Economics and Data Science.

I know this forum is called thefastlaneforum and not theslowlaneforum.

Indeed, my life goal is owning a profitable fastlane business before the age of 25 (I just got 20).

I know the scripted shit about university and all that stuff, but I decided to get a degree just as a "backup" plan (plus I've got to admit my parents strongly influenced me).

Anyways, I was wondering: is Data Science a skill that has value for Fastlane purposes?

Every day that passes I'm regretting the choice of University.

Not only because of the slowlane future that awaits me, but because I cannot see how the subjects I'm studying (maths, statistics etc.) can benefit me for a Fastlane lifestyle.

Clearly, Data Science and Economics are surely more useful than a degree in English Literature, but to which degree?

I've been studying in uni for 4 months now and I haven't learnt anything truly valuable so far.

Any opinion and input is truly appreciated. Thank you all in advance.
