Let�s say you have little to no responsibilities (no kids), you have the time, funding is not an issue, you are let�s say 18 years old. What degree would you go for or what trade would you like to go for? To make it more sensible, let�s say this 18 year old you has the knowledge of the current you.
I was thinking about this question, I am satisfied with my bachelor�s degree in Information Technology but if I had all the time in the world, no responsibilities, still living in my parents home, i�d have gone with Psychiatrist. Why? Because the biology of the human brain interests me and, psychiatrists working for the state of Ohio make, easily, $300k, with max i�ve seen was $600k+. They do minimal work, low stress level work.
The most work/stress you�ll go through is probably getting a bachelor�s degree followed by med school, followed by 4 years of residency. And you will end up like $300k in debt but who cares when you can make $300k a year and get like $150-200k paid towards student loan debt if you work as a doctor in the public sector? For example the state of Ohio offers Psychiatrists $150k to pay towards their student loans if they sign a 5 year contract.
It actually CROSSED my mind a couple of years ago, to major in Biology and go to med school for psychiatry. But I feel i�m too damn old and I don�t want to give 12 years of my life to studying. Plus I love computers/tech/networking/cyber security so i�m in the field I enjoy.
Just interested to see what some of you woulda liked to do if you can go back in time.
