Pretty urgent advice needed

Hi guys posted before so I figured I would shorten it.

I have 5 weeks to decide if I would like to take a second undergrad degree in mathematics in my hometown (okay Russel group uni) or I can in September 24 go to study Real estate finance at a good b school or try to apply to a more reputable university.

Here’s the deal: I’m terrified of automation and enjoy research.

Do I have a chance at going into econometrics/ statistics work for a real estate firm from a PhD if I take the maths? Are jobs like this available/ going to be in demand in 6-7 years?

Does anytime have any advice for what I should do? Any would be appreciated

What value is all this extra education even going to add? TBH it would be better if you found a job now. Even something like appraisals would be better than stacking up a bunch of useless expensive education. We'll see this play out when all the people who went straight to grad school this year get out in two years and the people who have 2 years of experience on them, grab all the roles they want.

Trust me, its going to be a big wake up call.
