If I don't mind school what career is the most promising?
I am a freshman in college now and currently have about 14 years ahead of me for schooling. I would like to be a forensic pathologist but the pay versus the school is a little risky. Along the path however i would recieve a Bachlors from my first college, A Doctorate from the second (Med school) and 4 to 5 years of what they call "residency" for what that is worth. I am seeing the salary for a forensic pathologist vary from $34,000 to begin and $270,000 experienced. And i am wondering is this the right path or is there something better? i do not mind about 15 years of school, no more than that i would eventually like to have a life haha. And i also would like to say that i am hoping to adopt one early teenage child during med school if that is possible and then have my own after med school. I know that alot of people will probably tell me to wait but i have always wanted children early and i think it is a responsible step to wait until after med school. But would still appreciate your opinions. Please help me =) thanks in advance.

This may sound a little foolish to you but it is the most true of anything anyone can say to you.
The most promising career is the one that brings you the most enjoyment. Not every career is going to bring you the most money. Yes, there are jobs out there that will allow you to earn lots of money. If you are not happy at that job all that money is meaningless. Yes, it is also possible to find a job that allows you to make a lot of money in a job you enjoy but first you need to identify what it is you enjoy most.
What is you like that you are really good at. Do you like science or math. Then you need to explore careers where your interest and experience in science or math can be used. Maybe you are good at art and drawing. If art, drawing and math are things you are good at you may have hit a trifecta in an engineering career.
Having a life plan is a good thing and you should be proud of yourself for planning for your future. To have an enjoyable life you need to take everything into consideration not just how much money you can make.
Most importantly no one; not I or any of us here can tell you what career path to follow. This is something only you can decide.

First of all,. I want to congratulate you on actually having a plan! Alot of people don't have it so simple for deciding what they will do for the rest of their lives.
Secondly,. I want to state that absolutely no one! Can tell you if this is the right decision for you,. Only you can decide whether or not this is the right career path for you.
It sounds to me that you have a very well thought out plan,. and that this is what you really want to do.
I wish you the best with your future plans.
Hope this helps:)
