    Well you should probably kinda narrow it down a little bit before you start looking xD
    Do you wanna do something in health care, computers? Business, law, education, music?
    Once you narrow it down to a broad kinda thing then it will be easier and more practical to start looking.
    But it's kinda like the blind leading the blind if you have no idea haha
    What's my definition of success?
    Creating something no one else can
    Being brave enough to dream big
    Grindin' when you're told to just quit
    Giving more when you got nothin' left

    there are very few schools that require you to need to know what you want to major in going in, most schools will allow you until the end of sophomore year to commit to your major.

    All I know is I want to make a lot of money and I don't want to be a doctor. I'm good at pretty much everything, great at some things. I only apply myself when I am doing something that interests me.

    Very true. You don't HAVE to know exactly what you wanna do.
    But I think it would help to have a general idea so that you can go to a school that has a good program for what you are leaning towards.

    I think that is pretty much standard to everyone across the board lol
    Just do something you are good at and won't get bored with.

    Computer science is a pretty well-paying field. If you have experience, you might want to consider that.
    Engineering is pretty good too.
    You might want to go into business.
    Just make a list of all majors that you might be interested in and work from there.

    I mean, just remember you can make A LOT of money in a bunch of different fields.
    You just have to work your way up to those higher paying positions.
    You aren't gonna be making 200k right out of school
    If you wanna do that, start your own business.

    I'm majoring in cyber forensics right now. Gonna try to at least get an associates degree in business/entrepreneurship as well.
    Try to diversify yourself ;D
