@davidixoye Without getting into the actual dollars and what your net worth will be in the future, I want to go down another path of thought.
You have a free education available and youth on your side. I recommend you go to school for one trade, and once you’re finished, go for another (or even more). Many of the trades are physically demanding and it would be good to have more than one skill set to help keep you from having to completely stop working because of an injury.
Most of the building trades will be around in the future. New ones will emerge, so keep up on what’s happening. Go back for more updated education as needed. Don’t box yourself into the current state of technology, because things will be very different in the future.
Take business classes, and make sure you understand how to structure your eventual business to minimize taxes while staying on the right side of the IRS (hire a great accountant!).
Being young (and I’m assuming able-bodied), you can do it all. Twenty or thirty or forty years from now, you’ll probably have issues like most people in that age range. Be sure to have short term and long term disability insurance. It may seem like a waste of money but it takes very little to ruin your financial future. Be smart about it.
As an aside, the building trades in NYC have a lot more rules and codes than most other places in the US. It can become very tiresome. You’ll make less money but potentially have a lot less stress to deal with if you consider getting out of the city.
