<prompt> Human: Hello rpersonalfinanceI am a current 11th grade high school student with a slightly above average GPA and SAT scores. I have no idea what I want to do in life, but I want to be financially stable in whatever it is. How should I approach 1 choosing a college, 2 picking a major, and 3 finding an industry all from a financial perspective?Other info: I am a Northern California resident, strong in math and science, and dont want a lot of student debt.Thanks in advance for the help!  <response>: If I had to do it all over again, I would have gone into the military.Join the Navy, and get a job in IT or something involving computers. Learn technical skills and get security clearances, on the militarys dime, and save as much money as you can. When you get out, with the right skills and clearances, you can get a job making 6 figures and have a good nest egg to build upon. Debt free, while seeing the world.Or, if you dont like IT, you can go to college and get a degree in something you like, and use the GI Bill to pay for it.
