Technology Careers

One career that i found which i was not aware of was the software developer. Software developers create softwares like java or adobe. This process to creating a software takes time and a lot of skills in programming in C++. Software Developers make up to an average of $95,000 and the amount of jobs are increasing with the new spread of technology going global, we need new softwares to support these devices.
A career that interested me the most in terms of  a potential career path is being a lead programmer in the game industry. The lead programmer spot is the most revered in the game industry and also does the most work. The lead programmer programs the whole game and has to be top notch in programming on C++. The average lead programmer makes around $90,000 give or take.
A career that I see myself doing in ten years is the game programming and i say this because i know i will have fun working with people create games for people to play and have fun with. Just knowing people are going to play my games and having fun is something that just seems awesome and i would love to to do that for a living. 
in order to prepare for this career the best would be to take some summer classes in highschool and some college courses to get the qualifications needed to be even looked at as a game programmer. The thing you need to be most proficient in is programming in C++ so majoring in C++ programming would be good to prepare for the job.
So how am I going to prepare? I am going to take some classes during the summer and get ready for college. When i'm in college i'm going to take C++ programming classes and graduate in 5 years. When i'm done i will go job hunting start off with a small company and eventually be with with a big studio and create games games for a living and be a part of the game industry.
