Not sure what I want to study for a career...

Hi guys, this is my first post Smilie

OK, so basically I'm an unemployed 29 y/o with just an Associates degree in Computer Info and so far I haven't been able to do anything with it. So I was thinking about going for a Bachelors until recently since I need to get into a career quickly and I'm afraid of digging myself deeper into student loans going to a university.

So far two things I am interested in are obtaining a CCNA (Cisco Certification) or taking a few web development classes at the community college. I'm very interested in both hardware and programming so I'm kinda lost.

So, in your opinion, which do you think will get me farther in terms of job security, good income and, of course, more fun?

Thanks for any opinions you have!
