High Paying Professions?

Question

Hi I was wondering if you could give me some ideas of other high paying professions besides those in the medical field? I would like to know some besides the medical field because of the amount of school required, plus I have never been good in chemistry or math. Could you give a little detail of what these other high paying professions entail? Thank you very much!!

Answer 2

Executive Pastry Chef!

It's what I'm going for!  You could ear as much as 140,000 a year if you happen to land a job in a casino or top hotel or other such place.

Actually, it doesn't take too much schooling.  Two years minimum. Four years would help speed things up and is, of course a good idea.  Experience is the most important thing and of course, you can only get to the "executive level" by gaining lots of experience.  It's also good if you go abroad (like say, France) to study for a while. Good on the resume and gives you some street cred.  

I'd say, you need a healthy dose of creativity and patience. Probably perseverance, as well.  I was/still am horrible at math and chemistry because I'm a right brainer. :D You probably are, too, so if you like creative/artistic things, I'd recommend looking in that direction.  

Hope I helped a little. :)
