nursing or a law degree?

I have always been interested in doing law and maybe it was because of the high salary or that my sister was doing law in university but i don't know what I want to do anymore. I just don't know if I could do law. I want to help people, that ones thing I know for sure. I don't want to be bored in my profession hating what I'm doing. Nursing really does intrigue me but it's the low salary that always discourages me. Would i be happier in nursing though? I know it's just as hard and id work just as long hours but knowing I can care for the sick and give life makes me feel happy.

Registered nurse here.
I certainly would not call my salary (a band 5, ward RN) "low", especially when I get antisocial hours pay for nights and weekend work which are part of the job. Yes it means missing bits of family/social stuff, but then some of my friends/acquaintances miss as much as I do and they don't work shifts.
I would suggest getting some work experience in both nursing and law where possible. Nursing experience you can get in nursing and in hospital; there are voluntary roles you can get in hospitals (we have a couple of volunteers on my ward, one is retired and the other is in 6th form and helps out a couple of evenings a week).
