Is being a scholar in USA a good scheme for earning $150000 or so?

Edit Post

I am aimming for Paley's Option 5, and my family can gimme $150000 for the first quadrilateral surgery. For the rest of the fees, I need to earn them myself.
I graduated from CS but due to my extreme laziness and bad work ethnic in CS, becoming a programmer there is a bad option for me.
What I can be there is a scholar. I don't know if becoming a scholar there can realize my dream however. My plan is that firstly with the money my family will gimme, I will do the first quadrilateral surgery to get 8cm, and then earn the rest of the money myself by becoming a scholar. My major will be something in science. Is that a good scheme?(Well, the time I will have to spend does not matter, as long as I can do it in my life lol)
Any reply will be highly appreciated!

Not sure what you can do with a science degree here besides engineering and healthcare.
