Want advice from the military guys

(Not that it's about the money like you said, but let's face it, you've got a gifted tongue )

After the military, any major 3 letter agency (NSA, CIA, FBI) would pick you up and you'll definitely make that 80k you're looking for.

If that's not the route you'd like to go, the Navy's Nuclear Engineering program is WELL known for setting people up for life. You do however many years you want in, and afterwards you're having several Power companies begging for your service.

Lastly, Air Traffic Control, if you're interested in that. It's an officially rated position that when you come out, any major airport would love to have you. Guaranteed 6 figures starting.

Hope that's a good start.
