Engineering will pay less money, but will be quicker and easier to achieve and generally leave you with much more time for yourself and family. I'd recommend engineering if you can genuinely see yourself happy doing that.
I went into an engineering program after my dad convinced me not to be a doctor. I dropped out after 2.5 years for a variety of reasons, but mostly because I hated it and just couldn't do it anymore. I was doing quite well in the program, but I just stopped going to class. I love math and science but the nitty gritty day to day of engineering was mind-numbing for me. 13 years later I started medical school. Physician was the only thing I ever really saw myself doing long term.
So unless you HAVE TO BE A PHYSICIAN, engineering is the superior choice. Get into a good program that has a solid track record of its graduates getting engineering jobs and making money (Harvey Mudd, MIT, RPI, Rice, A&M, etc) and be happy.
