Its hard to predict what jobs will be around in 10 years time. Alot of the best paid jobs of today didnt exist when I was picking college courses. It also depends what youre good at and what you enjoy. Its no good doing something you hate and will be miserable at just because you think there'll be a good pay cheque at the end.

Start by seeing what things you enjoy and what your good at and then you or others might see a career that fits with that criteria.

As someone who has changed career path my advice is where are you at this stage in life? Have you dependants etc if so look at a job that will pay the bills etc I gave all up to do something I thought I loved, it was such a struggle making ends meet I ended up hating the work, so I'm back in full time employment in an office thankfully I enjoy the work but the security of having a wage at end of week is important to me, too old for the hard slog lol, look at your local job opportunities see what's there. Go to college open days etc if you doing a course see what the job prospects are like at end of course etc best of luck

Most jobs will always be tough at the start...but at the end of the day if your good at what you do..then the return will come ie wages bonuses etc..although there's no indication as to what career your moving to.
