Thanks for your advice, but i would rather do something i enjoy like history even if i don't get rich than have 3+ years of hell and a career of hell, in something i find boring like law. No offense but i couldn't do that sort of job. Learning about law and the supreme court for 6 weeks in my politics lessons at school was boring enough, yet alone a life of it. The only other thing I enjoy doing apart from history or politics is cooking, but I don't think I could work in a restaurant because it seems like such a stressful job. 

It isn't about getting rich, it is about being able to afford a modest standard of living ...

On the topic of "Career hell" ... You are far more likely to enjoy your career if you actually choose it and work to achieve it than to fall into whatever job will hire you. There are many fields out there to choose from, but if you seek out the "most enjoyable college experience" you will likely spend the next 40 years doing a job that pays poorly and isn't enjoyable.

Thanks but is there some sort of website out there that lists type of jobs, the qualifications you need for them and average pay. I honestly know little on types of jobs out there!
