Not sure about the others, but a Bachelors in Economics is certainly a great option!

Some job prospects with an Econ major:
Financial Analyst/Consultant;
Risk Analyst;
Structuring Analyst;
Operations Research Analyst;
Industry Economist;
Government (Ministry of Finance);
Treasury Officer;
Internal Revenue Officer;
Transportation Economist;
And I can just go on.

Famous CEOs with an Economics major:
Steve Ballmer, CEO Microsoft
Sam Walton, Founder WalMart
Warren Buffet, the most successful investor of the 20th century
Brenda Barnes, first female CEO of Pepsi
Arianna Huffington, Founder of Huffington Post
Meg Whitman, CEO Ebay
Donald Trump, Real Estate tycoon (guy currently running for US presidency)
Imran Khan, Chairman PTI (Economics/Politics/Philosophy major)
among many others.

Hope this helps you decide. Good luck!
