Just an FYI. This thread was started last May and the OP is no longer a member of this forum. Feel free to discuss, but know that the OP will not be answering.
Based off the title of this thread it would be wise to say Grow the $!#!!~@ up. Who cares if you sound like a "gringo" and flush embarassement the best people out there are "gringo".
History is basically you preaching the current events of the world. Want to be a proffessor in that?
Business majors are those managers usually who work there way up. However there are other kinds of business. This is a national circuit. Look at big business current CEO and the decisions they made from start to finish.
About Public Administration. Have no clue what that is. Maybe it is something related to politics. Seriously it sound like you had it made as a teacher.
1. Jump more then three different unrelated areas of studies.
2. Swapt majors.
3. Move to a place with a bigger taxes.
A. Go to a trade school and find something, or even take some certifications.
B. You have more then enough skills for a person who interacts with people who talks more then one language. They have organizations as well that will take almost any bachelour students. Especially ones that holds majors that involve interacting with people a lot.
About political science. Planning to run for office? You know those things you vote people for? Or how about some urban development. Seriously your putting yourself in a heavy position involving people. Might as well move to a state where bilingual police officers gain more pay just for speaking a second language.
Just grow up man. Grow up. Might as well become best buddies with the language department and consider combining all your skills into one trade.
people needs guidance. If they do something they have no idea of how to make business of it or how to go along studying they will be lost. You are right and college is not the ultimate answer.
Even though we know the OP is no longer a member of this forum, this is a good topic. I have a niece and a nephew who are both in a similar situation to his. They both got their degrees but can't find work in their field because they refuse to relocate. They grew up in Philadelphia, went to college in Philadelphia, have all their friends and family in Philadelphia, and refuse to leave Philadelphia. So...they stay stuck in jobs where they make minimum wage, and they are having trouble paying off their college loans. They needed to quit feeling sorry for themselves and send out resumes to cities where there are openings in their fields. Now, it's been at least 10+ years since they graduated from college and their skills are becoming outdated and rusty. IMO, they have nobody to blame but themselves and their parents who did not encourage them to "leave the nest." Oddly, both of their parents moved to Philadelphia from other states to take jobs in their fields.
I feel sorry for the OP. Education system has got to do a better job of helping people find their passions (and the best paths into the corresponding careers) earlier on.

This has more to do with actually knowing yourself, your strengths, interests, and skills, than it does any academic institution overseeing your trajectory.
