How Much Do People Make?

Admit it: sometimes you get really curious about how much money other people are making. You are definitely not the only one! Unfortunately, many cultures tend to discourage talking about wages and salaries. There is never anything wrong with wanting to know the deets. Knowledge is power, and no matter what we have been taught, money does not have to be a taboo subject.

Whether you are looking for a potential career change from a criminally underpaid industry (looking at you and thanking you, teachers and nurses!) or if you are simply curious, it couldn’t hurt to take a look at all of the different ways people bring home the bread and butter… and exactly how much bread and butter they are bringing home, if you catch our drift. If you have ever wondered how much people are making, from the remote jobs that will have you sitting pretty to what your favorite Instagram influencer rakes in to the actual salaries of some of the most dangerous jobs in the world, we’ve got you covered.
