Healthcare vs engineering?

Findapath-College/Certs

29m finished college with a degree in history and I thought I wanted to become an esl teacher in Asia but now I realize that I probably need to figure out how to make more money in this life otherwise I don't think I'll be able to be independent since teachers don't earn enough in Asia or the US. Also for the first time in my life I actually want things like a new car, clothes, and toys which wasn't something I never cared about before. I've considered returning to school I've never really had a passion for anything so it's been tough trying to figure out what to do I just know my endgoal is to be able to secure a job despite the tough market and continue to grow my earnings. Nursing I know has so many jobs available and engineering does too but I'm afraid of ai a bit and also I'm not sure if I'm even smart enough or have the work ethic to do it but I've been thinking about it for a few years now and it sounds fascinating to me. Any advice? Or similar life experiences to share?
