Whats the best way to research potential careers and find the job you really want to go to college for? Are there any sites dedicated to helping people figure this out?

Literally just guessed the url "careers.org" and it looks fine, has location based stuff and salaries

Yeah I definitely was being lazy there if the answer was that obvious. I'm kind of surprised I didn't think to look there. Thanks for finding that for me.

Didn't they go over this with you in highschool?

No that was never covered with me.
And pretty much all of my friends who already went through college ended up blindsided by the reality that working that job really was once they had it. I think we're lacking a search service that gives you the dose of reality that is necessary in making these kind of career related decisions.
This site that was linked is good but it is leaps and bounds away from being enough for me to make a choice. And that site is probably one of the best out there.
I think i'm probably just going to start working on other better ways to make money on the side outside of an actual regular job. Like maybe open a store or something. Get good at investing maybe. Something.
And the hard reality is that you can just randomly lose your job someday for a BS reason in alot of jobs out there. That fear alone is going to force me to pick jobs that are reliable and high paying but not necessarily what I want to truly do.

That's why you study something that's broad and has lots of transferable skills. People shit all over liberal arts, but they're actually pretty versatile
