What should you do—pick a stable job with a solid income or go after what will make you happy?

We are all pressured in high school to know what we want to do for a career when we grow up but how should we know? What happens if we get into $50,000 in debt for college to become a vet and then realize we want to be a police officer? Then what do we do? #debt
