I'm a Haskayne Finance grad, and it took me a bit of time to figure out what I wanted as well.

I've decided on the CFA route, which is alot of work, but it is something that I find extremely interesting, so the work isn't that bad because the end result is desirable.

The corporate career path is not easy to climb, and secondary education is a must. After my CFA, I might consider an MBA as well. But I want to eventually get into an upper management role with a large O&G company.

It's all about trying to define where you want to end up 5,10 years down the road, and then determining what decisions you need to make to set yourself up for the best chance at success.
