I thought that politicians were overpaid too. But then I remember reading somewhere that the job needs to have decent pay to look attractive and viable to the right kind of people.

I thought that was somewhat ironic

Dead as in they're killed off or they get fired and never get their job?
Anyways my friend wants to be one and i was just flabbergasted at the pay and minimal work thats needed

Investment Bankers

In dubai nearly everyone gets hight salary
My dad works for the army and gets paid 25K us dollar a month
My brother and sister works in the police and gets paid 11.5K each
I'm still student and sponsored by a gas shipping company and I get paid 5.5K $ every month and after I graduate I'll be getting 17K $ every month


Easy life

Ignorant to assume that every country is the same.

I can barely get a reply out of one of my professors because he's always on vacation.

Dead as in literally so sedated that your body can longer breath in its own and your organs begin to shut down and can't be rejuvenated. Like how MJ died. Also though, if an anesthesiologist messes up, you might not be sedated enough. You feel EVERY single poke, stab, cut and stitch, etc, during the surgery but you won't be able to move or cry for help in any way. It's happened before.

Literally this.

Idk I guess just a lot of company bosses are overpaid, but I guess it's unavoidable - I mean they started/lead the company, so why wouldn't they reap the most benefit? Does suck when the people on the ground at the human level get paid dust though.

False. And even if it was true, teachers would be among the very short list of jobs that would actually deserve to get paid a massive amount, considering that they're literally creating and molding the future of our society. Same goes for nurses and doctors for saving peoples' lives.

Tbh, I think the only jobs that are really overpaid are sports players (any mainstream sport like football, basketball and soccer) and CEOs of major companies and startups (ones like Sony, Microsoft, Apple, Facebook, etc). They do next to nothing for the greater good and their only drive is to make more money for themselves, and they don't distribute it down the ladder to their employees. Greedy and overpaid tbh. Also, politicians and lawyers.

Umm none of the companies you mentioned is a startup. Secondly, CEOs at real startups don't make much. The CEOs as FB, MSFT, Google and Apple have proven themselves. So its hard to argue that they shouldn't be getting paid what they do given their accomplishments. However, I will grant you that CEOs get paid way too much as a whole irrespective of company performance. Steve Jobs famously only took a $1 salary. Apple is now the most profitable company on the planet.

Teachers in Canada (Ontario at least) make 100K +
Teachers in the Philippines make 18K monthly

That's what some of you are missing. On the flip-side, teachers in america may make 50K a year, or even less.

People saying $20+ million is too much for professional athletes must not realize the person that owns the team makes 10x that. Why do you thin Sterling was offered billions to sell his team of players? What they get paid is a drop in the bucket for how much revenue the sports industry generates. also, you're probably thinking about LeBron, Beckham, Tiger Woods, etc. Those are superstars on superstar teams. There are many others professional athletes that don't even make that much. Some barely make a $1 million a year.

Politicians get paid too much.
Investment Bankers are paid too much.
Truckers don't get paid enough.

um NO. Yall dont know **** about any jobs smh.

How are Nurses overpaid?

I'm a Registered Nurse Band 5 and I don't get paid well at all

So what do you know then?
I only know this because my best friend wants to be one

This. Plus they deserved it!

This is so not accurate, you can't compare the easy nursing career with studying Medicine, it's way more complex and expensive. Nurses are so much value, but there's a reason why there are doctors and there are nurses. It's like saying a mason knows more about construction than an Engineer.
