America’s Best and Worst Paying Jobs
Forbes has reported America’s Best and Worst Paying Jobs. The data is according to the U.S. government’s newly released Occupational Employment and Wage Estimates, based on 2008 data. A surgeon makes an average of $206,770 a year while a combined food-preparation and service workers make $17,400 per year. I always say a surgeon can never make too much money, because it’s a job I don’t have the stomach to do. Cutting another human would be extremely difficult for me to do. However, I may be able to handle being an anesthesiologist who makes an average of $197,570.
Below is the top 5 best paying jobs and the bottom five worst paying job.
