My grandfather was a neurosurgeon.
It took a lot of dedication, many years of school, and many on-call hours.
But, he retired when he was 45, so I would say that he might quite a great deal of money.
Make sure that you are dedicated and willing to spend a lot of years in school.

If you think you can last through fifteen to twenty years of school and probably 10 million dollars at today's rates, go for it. The school loan at today's rates should take you the rest of you life to pay off with maybe a little left for your children to pay off.
But don't let this discourage you.
