I went to college in 2000 and started majoring in Finance partly because it was a hot job market at the time, my older brother did it,...and it was just expedient. However, I never really loved it, or liked it for that matter.

Anyway, i'm 26 yrs old, I just quit my finance job and i'm determined to do something I like. The reason I left was because it was eating me up,...going to a job I didn't really like,..only reason I kept going was because I loved my coworkers.

My interests are strongly within the foreign policy, political commentary,..radio journalism realm. Problem is,...how the hell do i get started in that field? Any advice or feedback?

Well, why not go ahead and go back to school and get the degree you need to make your desires a reality? I recommend finding out what a traditional college program or maybe even online courses will take. But staying the course ina finance job if you are this unhappy would not be a wise decision. Definitely time for a change!
