I have no clue what I want to do.. just something maybe with real estate or banking, but I dont want to work a commission job... I'm pretty good at things except public speaking.. and i'm not a good salesman... can anyone give me ideas about what to do...thanks!

I would say that you should get a job at a bank. Personally, I would turn back and get a different degree in something more enjoyable... but hey, if you do enjoy banking... then the bank is the perfect place for you.

approach the problem from the other side as well: what do you definitely not want to do.... at least that will get you in the right direction. Most people know perfectly well what they do not want to do and sometimes that way it becomes clear what you do want to do. I hope this helps, because you can really only decide for yourself what job/career is good for you.
Also you can consider working short term in jobs to try them out, gain experience and knowledge. (and money of course)
It can also be a good idea to learn how to become a salesperson. In every job there is some degree of selling. If it is ideas or your work or litterally some product. If you manage to gain that skill, you will have an advantage, but it is a good idea to keep working on new skills anyway, even if you're only just out of college. it will teach you what you like and not. I mean, maybe you love nature.. so go buy and sell nature reserves.. houses near nature reserves, or go arrange the finance for poor people who want to build in the jungle or something... Use your imagination and make the entire world your playground.... The world is yours !!

In the real world, there is no such things as not good at.
You either train in it, or learn it the hard way.
Don't be picky, take something you feel comfortable with and stay on it till you have a better offer.
Go banking, esp investing or investor relations, this will help you build your speaking skills, and your ability to sell.

Figure out what you acually like to do. Then work from there.
