No. 5: College professors
While high-school teachers are neither the most respected nor the highest paid professionals, there’s a whole different story when it comes to college professors. These professionals command the utmost respect from the general public. In most cases, they are respected academicians who have proven their values through years of studies, published works, and researches. In addition, college professors are also quite well paid. According to the statistics released by the US Bureau of Labor, a professor can make anywhere between $75,000 and $130,000.
