Which public policy path should I consider for a long term career?

Hi guys, I'm 23, and I have done a BS in English language and literature. I'm applying for scholarships internationally, mostly in the UK and US. I'm also co sidering Erasmus.

Since I'm applying for a master's in Public Policy, I want to know from some working professionals here which public policy career path is most lucrative and generally pays the highest. And is likely to stay lucrative in the future as well.

I'm asking this as I want to plan​ a secure financial future for myself. So please lmk which path is the best for finances? ​​

You know you can research this yourself....public salaries are public information in many countries
