yeah who gives a fuck the more you earn the more you have to pay tax on. When you grow old they take it back off you if you have fuck all and you have enjoy your life then there is always someone there to look after you.
Just remember all the tax you paid enjoy lift while you are young enough.There maybe a time in your life when you wont know what a doller or a dime is but some other fucker wil be there to help you spend it.Now get off your arse and enjoy life while you are able.

Er… This list should really be called “Three well-paying, not-so-overlooked jobs and 22 Mediocre-paying jobs that most people get an education to avoid having to do”

Seriously. Toll booth operator? $45,000? That isn’t “well-paying” at all, and there’s an obvious reason most people overlook it: ambition.

VERY TRUE – but then again, this list was compiled by a simpleton who still derives great pleasure from fart jokes – as evidenced by the presence of gastroenterologist and proctologist on the list – both highly-desirable positions in real life.
Talking about “Gastroenterologist is NOT an “overlooked” profession by any means”

To respond to Bob…I’m sure it was mostly sarcasm on your part but I read a study that shows that your average drug dealer on the street makes less than minimum wage for the number of hours they put in to their “business” and are often users, putting what they earn right back into their habit. That’s a big selling point in trying to keep high school students out of gangs and drugs. They all want money and movies glamorize the drug industry.
