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?

It took me 10 years. I found myself working in a niche area, then switched companies halfway but stayed in that niche.
