Career choice

I'm going to be graduating at the end of summer from an non target school. I don't care about the fact that the school I went to more or less sucks, because I realize that ambition far outweighs skill.
What I am struggling with however, is the sector that I want to choose as my career path. I don't have much experience aside from an internship at a wealth management branch. I don't want to pursue wealth management until I am ready to retire. So, in hopes that somebody on here can give some insight here is a simple list of the things that I want/like:
- Ultimately I want to bring deals to the table. I want to do research, negotiate, work hard and be rewarded for it.
- My father was an entrepreneur, I enjoy entrepreneurship and thinking outside the box.
- I like stress (I mean, I don't like the type of stress associated with thinking my gf is pregnant, but I enjoy an optimal amount). I use to compete professionally as a wakeboarder, I know what it's like to be under the gun and perform.
- I like fast cars and fast women.
