Six figure as in $100k+? Corporate or commercial banking will get you there. If you mean $300k+ then will need to be IB or PE (or SWE)

Commercial Real Estate!! there are so many ways to make a 6 figure salary. Introvert, extrovert, math skills, design skills, communication skills. whatever you’re good at you can find a 6 figure job in CRE.
can you define “commercial real estate agent”? like a CRE broker?
throwing product manager in the mix too. doesn't hurt to do an internship in IB and find out if it's for you. if you end up hating everything apart from the pay, i would pivot to something else before you hate your life for 2 years
Full disclosure: a six-figure salary won't necessarily make you happy. There are many opportunities that afford financial security outside of investment banking.
