Now this is more like it! I am so tired of CNN et al posting articles like this:

"10 jobs that pay $1 trillion per year"

"10 greatest places to live with jobs that pay $1 trillion per year"

"10 great jobs that pay $1 trillion per year and only require a GED"

etc, etc, ad naseum.......................

Now they finally posted a more truthful article:

Stressful jobs that pay badly - Social worker (1) - CNNMoney.com

This article would be better titled:

Stressful middle-class jobs that pay badly

When "Museum curator" shows up on the list, you know the perspective is just a tad skewed in its perspective. Missing from the list were stressful and dangerous blue-collar jobs. Not a garbage collector, police officer, or fireman to be found....

It does state at the beginning that they did it based on jobs paying under $65,000/year and that required a bachelor's degree.

40k or more a year is not a badly paying job. Maybe it should be more, but that is another topic.
