What Industry pays the best wages?

Question

I know drugs, s*x, and hollywood all pay great... but I want a legal job, thats acheivable.

Answer 1

it's not so much just the industry, but the particular job and some jobs pay more in one industry than another - like Accounting - working for a hospital as an accountant will pay a lot less than working in a large Construction related business - I've interviewed in both industries and have seen it and I guarantee I wouldn't be able to get what I'm making working as a controller for a large HVAC company if I was working for a bank or hospital

Answer 2

Finance.

Answer 3

I don't think that Hollywood pays well for all professionnals.. I mean they do for celebrities and named producers/agents, this is something different... IT is supposedly good, especialy cisco, google as far as I know... But my advice would be have the priority to choose not sector, but job role at first... Accountant, financial jobs generally have more flexibility, so you may change sector easily;) You may become a partner, on the paper there are such opportunites for this particular area...
