I found this on the internet and i thought it's (at least a bit) interesting to know some of the best and worst paid jobs in the USA.
Best paid jobs:
Lawyers - Represent clients in criminal and civil litigation and other legal proceedings, draw up legal documents, and manage or advise clients on legal transactions. The total annual rewarding is $113,660.
Air Traffic Controllers - Control air traffic on and within vicinity of airport and movement of air traffic between altitude sectors and control centers according to established procedures and policies.The total annual rewarding is $110,270.
Engineering Managers - Plan, direct or coordinate activities in such fields as architecture and engineering or research and development in these fields. The total annual rewarding is $110,030.

Worst paid jobs:
Cooks, fast food - Prepare and cook food in a fast food restaurant with a limited menu. The total annual rewarding $15,960.
Dishwashers - Clean dishes, kitchen, food preparation equipment or utensils. The total annual rewarding $16,190.
Hosts and hostesses - Welcome patrons, seat them at tables or in lounge, and help ensure quality of facilities and service. The total annual rewarding is $16,860.
Counter attendants, cafeteria, food concession, and coffee shop - Serve food to diners at counter or from a steam table. The total rewarding is $16,950.
Does any of these jobs interest you? Only one of them has my attention - Lawyer. We all know it's hard fo find a job as a lawyer, but it seems cool (H).
This article let me see how unfair things are, I mean some of the worst paid jobs are jobs that make you work a lot and then the rewarding is something so insignificant...

Actually, considering the best paid jobs, I'm with you. Lawyer is by far the best. I say it because air traffic control and engineering never attracted me, and well... I just hate dentists. :)
I also agree with what you say about the worst paid jobs. It's really not a fair or encouraging perspective.
Good work, Vítor ^.^
Great post, in my opinion!
It can be a great help to some people that don't know what job they want to do in the future.
I totaly agree with you guys!
