What should I study?
As for what you should study, I do not know. Consider:
What are you are interested in?
What are you or what might you be good at? (you may have aptitude for which you are not aware)
What is practical, what will provide you with a good income?
What you can afford to finish?
Should it be academic or a trade?
Should I work for myself or for others? (this may change over time and according to your current situation)
Investigate the possibilities. Talk with people who are doing the work you believe you may be interested in. Ask if you can (shadow) follow them for a day or two and observe what they do.
Write out the pros and cons. If you can, take a few courses to see your aptitude and what you enjoy, then take it to God.
Please review and ponder the messages below.

Most leaders don't even know the game they are in - Simon Sinek at Live2Lead 2016
Trust and cooperation are not standard in our organizations and yet we know they should be. There are two attributes that every single leader has the opportunity to possess that will help them create the types of organizations we would be proud to call our own. Those two attributes are EMPATHY & PERSPECTIVE.

Making money without a job
While many if not most people work for someone else, not everyone wanting to make money has to have a job. There are many ways to make money.
Many years ago I taught a workshop for single adults with disabilities and single mothers. Some had never had a job. Part way through the workshop the group would brainstorm, come up with all kinds of crazy ideas on how they could make $50.00 in a week. I would then give them an assignment. They had to find a way to make $50.00 in a week and bring in proof and I would match it. It had to be legal, moral, and ethical, but most were able to do it. For many, it was an eye opening experience that they had the power to make money.
You may want to try something similar with some friends. Talk about ways you can make money. Make if fun. Come up with silly ideas. Any idea is OK during the brainstorming. Usually during the brainstorming part of the activity, many people came up with illegal, immoral, and unethical, ideas. That was OK, we wrote them all down and laughed about them. However; when they did the challenge, it had to be legal, moral, and ethical.
It doesn't have to be $50.00. Make is something small that people think they can do but which will stretch them and make them work for it.
Some people who took the challenge found themselves self-employed and immediately left the group because they were too busy working and making money... that was fine. That was our objective.
I remember one woman who started a profitable candle business. Others did other things.
The point is you do not have to have a job to make money. You can provide a service and be paid. You can produce a product and sell it. You can make or grow something. You can purchase an idem one place and take it to another place where it's needed and sell it for more than you paid.
There are many resources on this page that may help.
Good luck. Please make comments on what you try and what works to help others.
