Which would be a better field to go into, Business Management or Marketing Management?

What is the difference between these?
Which one makes more money?

Business Management all the way! Marketing is a much narrower focus, while Business Management is more broad. After 20 years selling, I wish I hadn’t gone so narrow with my degree. It has proven to hurt me on more than one occasion.

As far as the economy comment – while I agree it’s bad, I will say this… When I started in business in the late 80’s/early 90’s, the economy sucked then too. Now is the time the good people pull away form the bad people in business. I don’t mean morally good or bad, I mean the smart, hard-working capitalists will leave the under-achievers or the entitlement mentality people in the dust.

Good luck!
