Pretty sure they have to be in uni for 5-7 years and the hours are horrendous?

I think it depends what part of the nhs you end up going into. if you were a gp then you would only be working gp surgery hours (normal 9-5 working day I believe) The training is intensive for a long time but you end up with a stable job with a large pay packet...

Already been said, but the most respected, and or the ones which open the most doors are core sciences, maths, law, history, engineering (in some form, i'm ignorant towards engineering as an area lol)

Plenty of money to be made in the chemical synthesis industry if you have an aptitude for chemistry. Also the pharmaceutical industry if you're willing to loose any moral scruples you may have.

Economics, Statistics, Maths, Computer Science roughly in that order.

Generally,Economics get the highest salaries, but then again Economics students make sure they have a CV, apply for interns, aim high and are motivated by money more then most.

It could be anything to be honest as long as you get into a reputable university.
But that is the worst reason to do a degree because you may end up doing something you dislike,lose interest and do poorly :/
