I Can't Decide :(

Okay, so I posted a few months ago that I chose my career path. It was to become a lawyer...now I don't know.

I really want to go into public office. I would love to be a Gov. Sen. or even Pres. however, I know that my chances of actually becoming one of those are very slim.

I also love music and I want to be an orchestra teacher. The reason I want to steer clear of that is that they make nothing!
I want to be financially stable...in the sense that I have a good amount of money to be flexible with.
I can do that with law, not with teaching.

So that brings me back to law. If I became a lawyer, I read that it is like the most boring profession ever. And as some of you know, I like change and I like exciting stuff. I already know that criminal law is "exciting" but thats only the hour that you are in the courtroom a week. Otherwise its back to paperwork...

So ehh.
Help!

It is sad that music teachers, or well teachers in general get the shitty wages they do yet professional athletes and celebrities get so much.

One thing you could do, if you are into music a lot is get a masters or even a doctorate in music and teach in a college or university. It is definitely possible and you make decent money. You're not rich, but you are definitely comfortable (at least looking at my music professors).
