Career Path

in General Discussion edited January 2014
Hey, I have been searching and can't find anything that will give me just raw data without looking through hundreds of jobs. I am trying to figure out which college to go to and what to go for, I love computers, electronics, and advertising/marketing. I am looking for a career path with the first priority of making money and job satisfaction second. I know that job satisfaction is what matters, but what matters to me is having money because THAT will satisfy me.



What I am really getting at, is can people please post some job paths that are lucrative, and if possible close to some of my interests, but if not its fine.



I have around a 3.0 GPA (not sure what it is exactly), and I got 1100 on my PSAT's (just got them back today, SAT's are in the spring)



Thanks in Advance

    When I was 16.5 I never would have guess where I wound up and with whom.

    Lucrative, well-paying jobs:



    Sleezy Lawyer

    Plastic Surgeon

    Corrupt CEO

    Used Car Lot Owner

    Snotty Pop Music Singer



    I could go on, but I'll spare the rest of you...



    I hope you get everything you think you want.

    I'm almost 19 and I still have no clue what I wanna do. Enjoy being a kid while you have the chance still.

    The to of a lot of career paths make a lot of money. The problem is whether or not you can even make it to the top should you begin down that road. That is why people say job satisfaction should be important. Else, how are you going to last long enough to get to the point where you want to make a lot of money?



    Investment bankers, securities lawyers... they make a lot of money. Your entire opinion of this will change after college anyway, I guarantee it...
