If I wanted to work with computers where would I start as far as schooling and that type of stuff?

Well,

You've got about a billion options to be honest. You would really need to elaborate more on what you want to do involving computers, i.e. technician, network administrator, programmer, analyst, etc. But in an attempt to pre-answer, here goes:

If you were looking to be a computer technician, something as simple as an A+ certification could get your foot in the door, you're looking at roughly a $400 investment total for a Comptia study book and the price of the test(if you pass it on the first try)

There's also a ton of technical/vocational schools that offer either an AAS or BS in Computer Science, Systems Information, etc. or you could go the hardest route and obtain a BS in Computer Science which will get your resume taken seriously for nearly any entry-level job prior to you obtaining years of experiance/certifications such as MCSE, CCNA, Net/Sec+, etc. for the higher paying jobs further down the road.

You probably won't get rich in IT unless you start programming your own software, etc. or start your own business but you can earn a six figure salary easily with several years of hard work.

Hope this helps,
