Need help progressing to next lesson path, unsure on what career path to take. Any advice?

I have done HTML,CSS, some JavaScript on TeamTreehouse. JavaScript is where I start to get confused, so I am around that level ( not very far).

I am looking for a easy entry career(easy time finding job) and a career path that can lead to software dev.( high paying jobs) because one day I hope to reach that.

My question is, which path is more promising App Developer Iphone or Web Developer? Which leads to Software Dev.? Which is more easy to become professional?

Anything that you find easy to do and love to do that is exactly what you should do all the time.

I enjoy pretty much anything that has to do with a computer, I understand that you have to do something you like and it can't 100% be about money. Money is a secondary...but still an important secondary.

I am a huge gamer and would love to make a app game or PC game, but that career field is flooded and they only make 40k a year.

So that would have to be more of a hobby for me after finding a career.

I feel like Mobile Application Developers have a more promising future.
