College or Trade

I been fighting with myself trying to figure out what career path I should take. The more I research the more turmoil within myself I find. I’d really like to do Cyber Security but from my research due to AI and over-saturation of the IT field people aren’t find jobs. I’d even be ok just working in a school as IT Tech. On the other hand doing a trade like electrical or wielding there is constant job market for it. I see that a lot of people in the IT field are moving to trade jobs because they can’t find work or because they hate the work they do. There’s a class I took in college that made me interested in Cyber Security it was called computer forensics and lightly touched on Cyber Security but hidden messages in photos and video and reading router logs was just so interesting. I don’t want to invest money into education if the end result is no job. I’m just completely lost.
