To summarize, you will get the maximum benefits and get the highest paid if you are effecient and effective, in either branches finance of engineering.





The idea is, what is the branch you could "master" . If you master your work, this guarantees you to get the highest paid.





Bill Gates is not a genuis, but he likes his work. If you choose a branch you prefer, and willing to master, then you made it.





Good luck

Stay with what YOU LIKE and you will be better off. Remember that you will be working for the next 40 years....yes 40....so pick something you enjoy doing





You can make plenty of money at either. You will be more likely to get a job and make more right off in engineering but finance has a better long term earning potential. Problem with finance is that it does not take that much brain power so lots of people can do it and the field is crowded. Engineering is more demanding and so far fewer of them are around and its easier to get work and not fight everyone else
Reply:There are a few scientists %26amp; engineers that made money: a few entrepreneurial ones.





If money is what you want: go do something close to the money stream. The people you are indispensible to the world of money have the ability to take large cuts. Engineers %26amp; scientists are hidden in the back room at such times.





Go into business.


If you are planning on doing something for a salary, then you are not serious about making money.





If you want to take risks %26amp; retire before 30, then sit on the beach in the islands, take yourself seriously %26amp; plan for that.





If, like some lads %26amp; lasses, you get a real kick out of "doing good science" according to the good old scientific method, plan for a salary that may be adequate.





If you get that kick from creating devices %26amp; seeing every third guy on the planet have one, then go engineer %26amp; again plan for a salary.





I know some engineers with BMWs, but the only guys I know with porsches became business men %26amp; entrepreneurs.





If you like technical %26amp; want more money, I'd guess computer science might also be on your list?
