Coma after "finally"

Should there be a coma after the word "finally"?

See example:

Finally I presumed I would gain practical knowledge about entrepreneurship.

Yes, Michal, there should be a "comma" after the word "finally".

As a general rule, when speaking, you would take a breath after you say "finally", to conclude your comments, and the comma conveys that pause.

I agree with Shaila. I normally put a comma after an adverb beginning a clause.
