Radiology and dental hygiene would be the best for the time in school and the amount you will make afterwards.  There is a big shortage in the field and provide for many jobs anywhere.

unless you are going into med school or getting your PhD, you'll end up as a lab engineering making little money while the biotech sales people make 6/7 figure incomne.  the industry itself is booming and slowly converging with the electronic industry.  good understanding of electricity/computers may help you in the long run...

I would say any job that your good at and even better if it has benifits (vacation pay, sick pay, 401k) and you see youself doing it longterm its a career.  Good pay is also important.

Anybody who makes that kind of money will be materialistic at one time or another. Not only Doctors. I know doctors who dedicate their life to people who need help and their selfless constributions are most often taken for granted. So, not only doctors are materialistic, people who are not rich can be super wannabes too.

I believe that the best profession is really based on your interest level.  Are you a people person or do you prefer to do things on your own by yourself.  If you are a doctor, you have to have the ability to get along with all kinds of people and personalities and you need to know how to build rapport so your patients feel comfortable with you.  If you don’t work well with people, then you need a job where you can do your work without a lot of interactions with people.  An engineer uses instruments and designs things and contact with people in performing the work is limited.  So in deciding what job is best, you have to look at the job requirements and your individual ability to fit in.\n\nBoth make big bucks too,,,,a doctor averages around $100,000 as does an engineer.  It can also depend on specialization.  There are many kinds of engineers and there are many kinds of doctors.

The medical assistant career is very rewarding and versatile. Most medical assistants work in doctor's offices under the direct supervision of primary care or specialty care physicians. You must be good with people of all ages and from all walks of life. \n\nAccording to the Bureau of Labor Statistics the medical assistant field will be one of the fastest growing occupations in the USA.\n\n\nMedical coders and billers work together to assure health care providers to get paid for their services. The main shared focus area of both careers is the medical office business' financial aspects. It can be said, that the healthcare provider's livelihood and success depend on the medical biller's and coder's skills, dependability, and accuracy. Many working in medical coding and billing eventually specialize in either medical coding, or medical billing only.\n\nThe medical coder primarily focuses on converting a medical procedure, diagnosis, or symptom into specific codes to submit a claim for reimbursement.\n\nThe medical biller assures that health insurance companies and patients are billed for procedures provided by the health care provider, whether this took place during scheduled or emergency medical office, or hospital visits.

Anything, and I mean ANYTHING, in the nursing field.  There are also medical-related jobs not involving direct patient care, like medical records, which I am going to school for right now.  Medical is definitely a good way to go, but always keep your own interests at heart.

If money is what you are seeking consider real estate (Donald Trump), Law (especially dealing with class action suits), Denistry (though I doubt Denists make as much as the first two).  Certain investment bankers and those who are professional money managers (direct large funds for investors) also do well.  Finally going into business for yourself often yields good returns if successful.  Mundane businesses like convenience stores or dry cleaners are more reliable money makers than new technologies or better mouse traps.  Someone said she made money working in the medical field...first off $70K is not lots of money.  Secondly if you divide the hours put in by those in medicine, it ain't all that good, so you better be there for some other reason.\n\nHaving said all of that, money only goes so far.  I have never met anyone who did very well if the only thing motivating them was strictly money.  Find something that interests you and you are good at...figure out how to make a career out of it.  The money will follow.
