    If you select a career path based on $$$ you are almost guaranteeing yourself a miserable and empty experience. You should be thinking about what you enjoy doing, and then figuring how you an make money with that...it forces you to be creative. Check the link in my sig for something interesting.

    There really is no "correct" place to start...think about it and go with something that feels right, but stick to it even if it doesnt seem to be working out at first. Most successful businesses are the result of many previous mistakes...it took Thomas Edison 200 tries before he got the light bulb to work, and when asked why he persisted when he seemed to be failing he said, "I never failed; I just found 199 ways not to make a light bulb."

    Sure you know what you want to do in life. You want to make money. Not sure why you want to do that, but the best way to do it is to be a hedge fund manager.

    You'd basically get paid A LOT for playing with A LOT of other people's money on the stock market. By A LOT I'm talking 8 digits up per annum.

    !

    If you really want to make money and do something with your life, and actually want to be successful and not just rich... then start a business of some sort.

    If you don't have much capital or savings etc to startup an offline business, then start something online and make money through either selling a service or product, or through advertising (in which case you need to attract traffic)
