Because I know IT guys make a lot more than police officers that's for sure. But I am not sure if money is what I am after, what market do you think needs more people?
There are thousands of routes in the word "IT" you need to be more specific as to what you want. Law enforcement in General isn't seeing a huge increase (5-10% at most) whilst Computer type jobs will always be in demand as more and more startups are popping up, needing specific IT personale.
