Most Overpaid and Underpaid Jobs in America
By Andy Kiensz, Mike Nudelman and Gus Lubin
People often have strong feelings about how much different types of
professionals should earn. Notably, a driving factor in the Occupy Wall
Street movement was the belief that corporate executives and finance
workers earned far more than their fair share.
In a new Business Insider/SurveyMonkey Audience poll, we showed the
mean income for about 50 occupations to about 400 respondents and
asked them to rate these jobs as very overpaid, somewhat overpaid, paid
about right, somewhat underpaid, or very underpaid.
The results were not exactly surprising.
77.3% of people said that financial managers, with a mean income of
$123,260, were very or somewhat overpaid. CEOs, financial analysts, real
estate brokers, lawyers, and other professionals were not far behind.
89.9% of people said that agricultural workers, with a mean income of
$21,920, were very or somewhat underpaid. Jobs in childcare, restaurants,
factories, and schools were among the most underpaid jobs.
SPEAKING: What would you like to be when you grow-up? A doctor? A
soldier? An architect? Talk about it in groups of 3 and give your reasons,
use the questions you wrote before.
