Highest Paying Jobs in the U.S.

If you're one of those who are primarily motivated by money, pay close attention. The 10 highest paying jobs in the country are as follows:

  1. Surgeons at $137,050/yr
  2. Obstetricians and gynecologists at $133,430/yr
  3. Anesthesiologists at $131,680/yr
  4. Internists, general at $126,940/yr
  5. Pediatricians, general at $116,550/yr
  6. Psychiatrists at $113,570/yr
  7. Family and general practitioners at $110,020/yr
  8. Dentists at $110,820/yr
  9. Chief Executives at $107,670/yr
  10. Airline pilots, copilots and flight engineers at $99,400/yr
I believe that it is not wise to choose a position and certainly not a career based upon the pay. You can make a lot of money and still be miserable. Instead, look at your competencies, interests, and values. Your values may be to find the highest paying internship or the highest paying entry level career opportunity or a job that is the highest paying amongst all available to you, but don't forget about your competencies and interests. What are you good at (besides cashing checks)? What do you like to do (besides cashing checks)?
