best college major for non traditional student willing to do an mba in future

I am 27 yrs old and dropped out of college after sophomore year due to financial trouble, since I have been working and now I am Financially secure now. I am making 6 figures proprietary day trading. I am restarting my career, I have returned to my state school Oklahoma, which would be a suitable major for me as,(I could not do a hard engineering major as I have been out of school for a while) I intend to do an MBA afterwards?
