I suggest going to your career center on your campus and reading up on careers, examine your passions, maybe take one of those job quizzes which will assess your strengths and this will help you determine what youre good at. Money isnt everything...and work is something you'll have for a few decades to come, make sure you major in something you enjoy learning about, or those 4+ years could be miserable

Before you can choose a major I suggest you look at other parts of your life. Apathy *usually* signifies some deeper problem such as depression and you should check it out.
As many other users have said you should never strive to go into a field just for the money. You should find something that interests you, even if it's a trivial interest, and pursue it. Money is not the route to happiness and I am assuming that you are looking for a major that will lead to happiness and contentment.
I also recommend reading the ebook: How to Live on 24 Hours a Day by Arnold Bennett. It has some great advice for people who don't want to just 'muddle through life'.

You should major in...umm...what's it called...a better outlook! That's it. It's okay if you aren't really passionate about something RIGHT THIS INSTANT...but you'll find something. Major in an area that somewhat intrests you...cuz there is something. You're just being stubborn and closed minded. And another lil tip...you won't be successful for long if all you want is money...there's gotta be the will to work...meaning you have to enjoy what you do. So open your eyes and explore..try something new that seems alright to you if you really aren't interested in anything!

If you are interested in making money...get a job at the mint...they make all the money!
But seriously....
Try taking some of the personality tests - organize your thoughts about what you LIKE and what you CAN do...skills + interests = value (human capital). A degree can help add to your earning potential.
Check out the Occupational Outlook Handbook at www.bls.gov. It profiles hundreds of different career areas, from earnings to what you would do...and professional organizations in the various fields where you can find out from practitioners what is really involved.

Business. The major for people who care about nothing but money. I'm doing the opposite and taking classes I want to take without thinking about a job. I'm majoring in political science and Spanish, minoring in economics, and learning conversational Arabic. What do I do with that degree? Right now, I don't know and I don't care. Think about what you want to major in, and then get a master's degree for the money. A master's degree in almost anything is big bucks.

I would suggest getting out of school and finding a job. It isn't worth your time or money going to school if you aren't interested in anything. If money is all you care about, you can get a couple of jobs and work 80 hours per week.

You sound boring. Major in something boring. Something that NO ONE else is interested in either. That way, you'll have a unique skill, and an advantage once you graduate.
I really can't understand how you can go through life interested in absolutely nothing. How do you make it?

Unfortunately, no interest and not caring makes for looowww quality work and getting fired a lot.
Maybe skip college , save all that tuition $$ , and hope for a job on one of the factory assembly lines ?

If you must go to college, engineering. You can get a really good paying job right out of a college. It's hard but worth it
