Finance was a big one for me.

Understanding the fundamental concepts of, for instance, CAPM and free cash flow have been useful in my career. You also pick up some useful personal investing lessons.

In general, this class gives you insights into the decisions a CFO (and supporting team) is faced with -- e.g. is it better to invest in tech A or tech B or neither?

In my own personal career, I've had to make a case to Finance in order to build out a program and being able to talk-the-talk was helpful.
