Physics vs Network Security Specialist?

Hey all, i am currently trying to decide on a career....

I a 21 in the USAF so money will not be a issue... either way i plan on trying for a PHD.

I am stuck between nuclear or quantum physics and grabbing a CEH and some other certs as well as a degree and being a tech guy.

i am currently a pc tech for the airforce. Both computers and physics are a hobby and love of mine.. but i want to make sure i grab a career with high pay and very good empoyment outcome...
