Money - Last updated April 4, Guest Post by Kristina. But what is the different between a job and a career? Can you have a career that pays an hourly wage, though?

Or better yet, let me ask you a personal question… How much do you make per hour? How much money do you earn per hour at your job? Since I asked the question, I will also answer the question:. Here are 10 Jobs or should I say careers? You may be surprised at which careers have the most earning potential. Do any of these professions interest you?

How much are you making now? Ride sharing companies like Uber have made it easier than ever for anyone to start a profitable side hustle. You may even be eligible for a cash bonus if you sign up to drive for Uber here.

You can follow her on Twitter TahnyaKristina. Tatoo artists are definitely skilled artists, but I find it amazing that they are in the same category as anasthesiologists! Thanks for an intersting post. Yeah I agree…my tattoo guy does by the tat not the hour…. Unless you go to a street shop or are being tattooed by an apprentice. There are artists like Guy Atchison who charges an hour or Jeff Gogue a day. And you have to book a whole day.

Interesting post, but I think that two groups have been unjustly lumped together. Some jobs are full time, while others, like freelance photographers and parts models, are only part time gigs.

Enough to comprise a full time job? Of just an occasional gig? Interesting and varied list. Photographers could stay busy enough if they are good.

Between sitting fees and profit on any prints, I bet they could make a decent living. Most decent Tattoo artists are booked out 3 to 4 months working about 5 days a week 5 to 8 hours. The good artists like Jeff gogue, Guy Atchison, Angela Grace ect… Are booked out for years. And he lives in grants pass Oregon with a total population under 30k.

Welcome to the free market. If people stopped getting tattoos because the price is too high, the artists would charge less to be able to do what they love. And if it was all about money the artists would do something different.

I would have to choose freelance photography as being the best in the list. I think it would be so much fun traveling the world and taking the best pictures i can get. I actually hope to do that one day. Maybe ill get a snapshot of BIGFOOT: Some of these jobs do not guarantee steady work, but once we build up a client base I am sure that anything is possible. I also learned that Tatoo Artists pay a monthly chair rent to the Tatoo Shop owner.

They negotiate their price with clients per tatoo. Regardless of whether they make money each month or not they still have to pay a monthly rent to the Tatoo Shop owner. Interesting article — there are definitely some unexpected professions on this list!

I do agree with Gerard though: You bill high on your hourly, because the work is unsteady. Maybe half or a third of that, at the absolute most. Oh, another point about tattoo artists is that they will almost always design the tattoo for the client.

Plus they have to cover the cost of all the materials. Just one thought on massage therapy is that the per hour varies far more wildly than the school advertisers would like you to know. Not per hour, per massage. I only have one year of experience so far and did have to get a Masters in Library Science. Yana,if people have suicidal, depression and people have mental retardation And autism they need a life coach. Quite honestly this is quite misleading.

This is an interesting post, but I do agree with Gerard below. I understand the intent behind it though— to show us some of the less expected, high-paying jobs.

PS- I hate to do this, but I am a die-hard Seinfeld fan: It is George who burns HIS hand in the episode. Just thought you should know: I do freelance photography as well more of a paid hobby than a profession but I make more doing that than I do at my coaching so far! Natalie thanks for the Seinfeld clarification: Wish I could afford a life-coach, so much could be done.

I think Anestesiologists should make that or more, especially during a big procedure. They do more than just knock you out, they mix tthe right drugs to put you out and keep you out. Sure, some of that went into overhead, but they were still making a pretty penny. No — interior designers are not allowed to provide archirectural or engineering services.

And I say that as a licensed architect with an MS in structural engineering. I would no more take engineering advice from an interior designer than I would allow a aesthetician to fit me for braces.

I would like to be a massage therapist but my hands are bad carpol tunnel coming soon. But a life coach sounds interesting! Not only are some of these jobs not full-time, but some, like being a massage therapist, include a great deal of unpaid time: That prevents other work. I have worked as a freelance photographer and I am currently a contractor billing my own hours.

So by the time you take out overhead, taxes, licenses, fees, insurance, etc. And my private, non-subsidized healthcare insurance bought on the private market is sky high. Still almost all of them love it and do it despite all that. This mirrors my experience.

I love working for myself. And I charge a lot. Anyone thinking of starting their own gig should read the article. Thanks for guest posting while I was gone, Kristina! These were awesome to read — especially from someone who has career A. Haha… so thanks again for giving me more ideas. Chris — Good point on the safety side of things for underwater welders — it would freak me out too much to try myself. Not that becoming a doctor is everything but I think you may get a break on insurance!

I think being an anesthesiologist sounds interesting. Putting your patients to sleep may lead to some pretty boring conversations, however ;. Just wanted to second that underwater welders face a lot of danger in their work.

They typically have a rotational schedule with a certain number of days in the field and a certain number of days at home. This works out to fewer days worked than a normal job and thus less earnings. The total gross will vary widely depending on billable hours. Yeah, no amount of money is worth losing limbs or bodies or anything!

Great great money but man, the risk is too high for my blood. I admire those who go all out though! Some of the top jobs were real estate broker, air traffic controller, construction manager, and I thought I would just share that here because they were very similar.

Some of these jobs do require some sort of education though, but not a degree that would most likely get you into massive amount of debt! That Money Crashers article has some of the same faults as this list. Air traffic controller is considered the most stressful job in the world. A mistake may not kill you like it will in underwater welding , but will kill somebody else instead.

A real estate broker is an independent contractor that is largely dependent on the state of the economy. And as far as construction manager, nobody starts out as a construction manager. Then you work your way up to foreman after a few years to a decade. Then you are a foreman for a very long time and possibly never make it to construction manager.

MoneyPerk — I believe it! Edward Antrobus — Agreed. If so, I want to hear more: If you end up becoming one, let us know how it goes later on! Would love to hear more. Of course, saying that is as misleading as this article, considering it could take months to make that sale. Work and you shall be rewarded. So this article is a bit misleading. Colin — Totally agreed!

The more you work the luckier you get, right? Always exceptions with this stuff. Yup, I believe it! Hair stylists often make more than tattooers. While being a great artist will nab you a great word of mouth clientele and reapeat customers… being a good artist with an even better hustle game can net you bigger profits by shear volume of work alone… and as they said in the article tattoo artists only get paid when they work.

No one gets paid if the machines arent running… but you can eaisily carve out a decent 50k a year…. Yes — great insight for sure. As an Intraday trader, you can work any hours throughout the day. On top of it you will not qualify to get life insurance.

That is assuming they work 40 hours a week. I think only the anesthesiologist and the attorneys will maximize their hours. Hey Kristina I was interested in knowing more about life coach misoose and the the pipeline fixing what needs to be the qualifications? Most of the people commenting on the dangers have overly exaggerated them. Great article though, glad to see these jobs being recognized!: Also, every tattoo artist I know of makes at least an hour!

So I have to ask where do you work? Look it up the list is flawed.
