Sir, I am 33 years old, unmarried.... I was running my family business for the last eight years...we were in a very bad situation in 2015 since I joined but now our business is doing decently good, but not good enough as per my expectations. My father is taking care of the business now. We supply regular office equipments, also help in marketing of companies like designing their advertisements and putting up their bill boards and hoarding. We also organise office events and parties. But I am not satisfied with the growth or the future potential of the business. I want to shift to something new and desire to work in the financial management field as I had wanted since I was studing CA. I had left CA in the middle and only my finals of CA is left, I am done with inter which I cleared in first attempts and articleship and all. Do you think it'll be okay to give my finals with good marks and use my experience in business and start a job in a good company. Is that possible, plz let me know???

Ans: It may be a good idea to focus on completing your CA, that is a useful qualification to get a well-paying job; it also will come in handy if you decide to continue in your business or create a new path. At this juncture, it looks like you would like to gain greater exposure in new fields and not get stuck in a rut.
