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?

Agreed. That is why I got out of accounting. I couldn’t believe the hours people work. It really takes the shine off the pay.

Def depends on the company. One of the CPA firms I worked at was a bit smaller, most I did was 50 hours in tax season. Then you work 35 hours/week the other 3/4 of the year.
