What do you do that you earn six figures?

It seems like a lot of people make a lot of money and it seems like I’m missing out on something. So those of you that do, whats your occupation that pays so well?

Not really. Wife clears $175 with a mix of public and audit. Never works more than 50 hrs a week during tax season

Nice, but it’s hard for me to believe those 50 don’t suck.

They do but because it's temporary as you have something to look forward to (not working 50 hours), and the next few months feel like part time.

Not as bad as the shit they have to put in at the Big Four apparently. Summers are pretty lax which is nice
