Mean Income: $100,930 Top 10%: $135,000
The title is pretty self-explanatory: running a business properly is why business operations managers are needed. They discuss ways to meet company goals and establish a course of action for the workers to achieve them. They deal with budgets, recruitment, organization strategy, and more.
In order to become a business operations manager, one will need a bachelor’s degree, or sometimes a master’s of business administration degree. This kind of degree would cost about $9,000-$70,000 a year.
Information Systems Manager
Mean Income: $106,000 Top 10%:$128,000
This job is pretty similar to that of an IT manager (which is the person you call whenever your work computer crashes and burns. So... every three hours). However, this role has some more responsibilities.
Information systems managers are in charge of a company's information no matter how it's organized. They are the Marie Kondo of information and they are being paid as such.
Psychologist
Median Salary: $100,770 Top 10%:$151,000
How often have you told yourself you need to start therapy? Probably way too often. We all need a mind doctor to help us sort through the thoughts and feelings we experience on a daily basis.
Psychologists usually get a doctorate in psychology in order to be practicing their craft. Other than that, they also need a psychology license in most states. Other than treating people's psyche, psychologists also conduct research to further contribute to their field.
Mathematician
Mean Income: $101,900 Top 10%: $109,975
You know how you were little and your math teacher warned you that you won't always have a calculator at your side? Well, the joke's on them because your cellphone does all of your calculations for you. But, as it happens, some people's intelligence stretches beyond that of your cellphone's calculating skills. Those people are mathematicians.
Those superhumans. They take numbers that would give most people anaphylactic shock and use them for the greater good (the greater good being more money for businesses and government agencies). Those people normally have a bachelor's degree, and oftentimes a master’s degree or doctorates.
Physician Assistant
Mean Income: $108,610 Top 10%: $128,504
Physician assistants work with doctors, nurses, and other medical professionals to take better care of patients. They perform tests, diagnose patients, write prescriptions and treat patients however they can.
PAs would learn their profession at an accredited program. They will learn all there is to know about anatomy, clinical rotations, and medical ethics. Getting into such a program would cost tens of thousands of dollars per year, but the salary you get paid once you get a job would make it all worth it.
