I believe the choice of medicine seems a better one, assuming that the cost of care in this country continues to go up and that the aging population needs more and more of it.

I would suggest getting into medical in such a way that you don't have to get 6 figures in debt (ie medical school) before you can start making money, and also to think about your interests and inclinations. For example, if chemistry is a strong suit and interest, then pharmaceuticals may be the ticket. If electrical, then pacemakers, etc. If you're big on stats, go for epidemiology (can work in govt or pharmaceuticals).
