Advice on life (jobs)?

I'm in high school and it's about the time to find my career (my mom keeps pushing me)
I have a question. Should I go take classes that would benefit me educationally/ job wise or should I pursue my dream? I want to be an animator but you know how much they get paid.
Help? Thanks. How did you decide?

A friend in high school wanted to be an animator and went to school for it. About half way through she decided it wasn't for her and tried a few different things.
She wound up taking a photography course with a friend as something to do and loved it. She's now a fantastic photographer who books up months in advance.

Take those classes that you like.
Yes, you can take those classes that after school you maybe just maybe you will be paid more, but you don't know now what econoics and what salaries will be after few years.
So my advice, follow your dream, because then you will do what YOU want, then if you do what YOU want, you will be better than others who just took those classes for money or smth.. If you will love what you like, you will become expert, you will enjoy your lofe and you will be happy, and that comes that you will make more money !

Just be smart about it; figure out how to turn your dream into a viable, lucrative career. Obviously, that will take research, networking and creativity but it will be worth it. Be prepared to stretch yourself and think outside the box.

The point is, there are a lot of ways to do what you love. It's not all one way or nothing at all. I would suggest balancing your courses so that you also learn something else (business maybe? ) so you have skills for filler jobs between animation gigs. Or teaching courses. There are a lot of ways you can do this.
I recommend taking as many free classes as you can in high school, and then taking what interests you as electives in college.
When I was in college I took various courses that I found interesting that would still count towards graduation just to see if I was on the right path. While I didn't pursue a career in Art or History, I still enjoyed taking those courses and learned a great deal. And they counted towards my degree too.
I think it all comes down to doing what makes you happy. If you're happy being an animator, do it! Life is too short to have any regrets or be miserable at a job.

So my point is, don't spend 8 years in college like I did when you know what you want to do. You may not get a job in your dream field, but you'll have a degree that you loved getting, and you will find a job doing something. You'd be surprised how you could use a degree in animation. You'll learn animation amongst other design techniques which would make you marketable to advertisement or website creation. You just have to integrate what you love into something that's at a high demand. It's been years, so I'm not sure what the market is for web developers anymore, but when I was in school it was high.
I guess it depends on what you want to spend your time on, and what type of job you want or would be satisfied with. If you're anything like me, if you look around too much you'll be in school forever trying to find something you might like.
