Is NYU Stern worth it?

I only got $6K in scholarships so I'll be paying at least $60K every year. Even if I major in finance, get internships and a high paying job on Wall Street, is it worth all the money?

The only good business school I got into was NYU so my other options are UC Davis, UC Santa Barbara, and UC San Diego for computer engineering. If I go to one of those schools, I will definitely either major or minor in economics. I really want to go into IB or HF but I don't know if I will love that life so I think spending $60K a year on something I'm not sure I want to do is not a great idea. But I also don't want to do computer engineering which is why I'll major or minor in economics but I don't think I can get a job at BB from either one of the California schools.
