What type of wage should i be looking for in a job?

Question

I'm nearly 17 and i think i should start to narrow down my options of a career, in a week i have to choose my final year subjects and i need to check I'm doing the right subjects with the careers adviser.

i have a few ideas of what i want to do, and i will always pick the job that i like the most over the wage (i already have had jobs and come into this problem) but i think i should at least consider the yearly wages in order to be able to support a family.

What type of yearly wage is good for a student? (20's to 30's)

What type of yearly wage is good for a family dad? (30's up)

What type of yearly wage is the average and the top quarter?

thanks for any answers :D and please put all wages into New Zealand dollars for me :D ( I'm from New Zealand ) and it could help if a few comments could be from New Zealanders because i think they would be of most help but all are welcome!
