What career path to go down

I’m a senior in highschool and have good enough grades to get into good schools (BC, Georgetown, probs not ivys) and I’m looking to eventually start a business after learning by working for a while. I like trading (trade fix but nothing crazy) but apparently trading is dead, so I thought IB but looks like that’s not a long term option (do for a few years and move on), so what is a good career path to go into with the idea of later starting a business? AM?
