I agree with one of the people above talking about investment bankers. I know a couple people who do that who make more off their yearly bonus than I do on my annual salary and they're only in their late 20s - and ironically none of them are exactly of the intellectual caliber you'd expect of somebody that young making that much money. One was a finance major and the other an accounting major with his CFA certification (or whatever the accounting equivalent to an engineer's PE is.) That being said, that field seems mind-numbingly boring to me.
Generally speaking, I still think of engineers as being one of the most consitent high paying jobs with a BACHELORS degree available. Many tech fields do well as well, but in the current job market seem to be much less stable than most of the old school engineering fields.
