I really want to into a high paying job but I don't know what to go to school for, and what careers are worth pursuing.

>zero debt
>no connections
>smart I guess

If we pretend my goal is to have a 6 figure salary in around 8 - 10 years from now (or sooner) , what would you go to school for and what career / industry avenues would you pursue?

There's a new invention called "www.Google.com." It's a search engine where you can search for career advice.

been googling with no luck.

I want to be one of those business fucks that have a nice salary but I don't have an idea of what business degrees to go for that are in demand / useful / waste of time.

I don't mean to sound like a douche, this board seems to think that 6 fig. salaries are easily achievable I would just like some recommendations
>>
6 figures is easy, it's just everyone doesn't want to tell you

look into "data scientist". git good with excel, sql and databases. easy job, paid high
>>
Finance is a good base to start with if you enjoy analytics and modeling. Plenty of routes to take to ensure 6 figures 4-6 years after college. Some examples would be Asset Management, or Investment Banking (If you don't mind giving up some of your social life).
>>
Coming from a recent grad the easiest way to make 6 figures is simply majoring in a respected field of business, and knowing powerful people. Having a strong network is better than any resume or stupid online application. The more high up/established people you know, the easier it will be to get a high paying job. You basically bypass the entire interview process.

thanks for the advice, would a computer science, statistics or an applied maths degree be required?

>>1998405
>>1998425
Asset Management and Investment Banking seem up my alley. I don't have connections with powerful people but I assume those form while I am going to school?

Go to trade school for welding, get a scuba licence, become an underwater welder and 200k in your first year

I don't want to die or seriously disfigure myself
>>
Is studying international business managment a good option? I have quite a lot of connections and a lot of experience in internships (18 about to be applying to university)
>>
>>1998865
>internships
when I see this shit on a CV I pull out my paperclips and get a jewy smile
>>
>>1999750
how about contributing to the thread instead of larping

If you're in the states look at the railroad. If you're a conductor or and engineer its a 6 figure job either way. You don't need to go to school they train you on the job. Great benefits. Bnsf has a 401k with vanguard because they're all warren buffet owned and he likes to keep it in the family. Plus the insurance etc is great.
