I love to bake, create things, just be creative but that doesn't offer a steady secure paying jobs. Something like medical/technical careers do but I just fear that I would get tired of it and be depressed. Would you choose what you love or go for something secure?

its very very smart to consider that I got a BS in Biology, and all it got me so far is frustration in terms of jobs I think like when you go for a job stocking shelves or something, they say, oh, send a resume to the main office to see if they need a manager or something learn tons of Math whatever you do at least minor in something marketable if the family is wealthy and the kid is all set along those lines I would say study whatever you like if not, I would strongly suggest nursing, some kinda science, or at least something that most people with degrees in that actually get hired for something

In my opinion, you should go to school for what you love to do. When you love doing something, you will tend to do it better. You will enjoy every minute of it. Thus, you won't be bored. So, you can make money from it. I graduated from the University. However, I am doing something that I enjoy it. Well, it is still coherent with what I had studied, though.

Unfortunately we can't always do what we want. You can go to university gat the BA and then do with your life what ever you want. I mean, you can bake as a a hobby and if people like your stuff you can even start selling them or something like that but you would always have a main stream of income if baking thing doesn't work out. At least I see it that way.
