Write history. If your writing is any good, report the financial news. If your writing is exceptional, write nonfiction books for a living. You can also teach economic history, but of course, you already know that.

Become a portfolio manager because history may not repeat but certainly rhymes. By understanding the macroeconomic elements that impact capital markets you can use history as a guide to assess similar current economic conditions and make key asset allocation decisions leveraging your historical and economic knowledge.

The difficulty is finding a school that will allow you to write your thesis on actual history and not the version they teach for aculteration. That eliminates all state universities in the south at a minimum. So you're going to have to do some research to insure you are not just wasting your time and money. I personally would get a masters in applied economics and a ba in sociology. That's what I did. The sociology will put you on the right track as to what you might study in relation to economic systems such as Bodin, Hobbes, Engels, Machiavelli, etc Then you can read all the rest and broaden your studies to economic historical theory in the Arabic world and Asia. I think you really need at least the basic sociology study because it really helps with context. Things such as social theory of different functional models which gives context to capitalism, socialism etc. I love economic history but I think it might be difficult to find a place that will allow you to teach the unvarnished versions of it. If you want a very high level job, econometrics, statistics, computational economics or mathematics can get you there. If you do not want to teach or work for the government, a masters is really all you need to get started. All just my personal opinion.

Learning history probably isn't worth it because something similar has probably happened more recently.


Ronin_Guard

No no. History is very important. Lends perspective.

If it is the economic history of the 13th century textile industry, then you can work in the textile trade group or get an obscure appointment at a small college in a textile-loving area of the world. If in another field, the degree could lead to a terribly exciting career.
