The Best Job For You

Everybody wants to be able to make a living to support themselves. . some people make it a bigger priority to do this in a successful way, but everyone in some degree wants to have a solid job that brings in a satisfying income. There are many different aspects that should be considered when trying to find the right job for you, but I will attempt to make some good suggestions of some jobs that could meet all of your needs and some of your wants, too. :) I have found 10 of the best jobs (in my opinion).

The Best Jobs To Pursue Now


1. Actuary  My dad had seriously considered becoming an actuary several years ago and actually passed 3 of the ten tests that are needed to beome one, but he decided he was content with the job he already held. Actuaries use statistics to figure out the probabilities of certain risks happening in people's lives, mostly for insurance companies. This job requires an extensive knowledge of mathematics. Here is a link that can give much more information on being an actuary. If you are willing to go through all of the training to become one, the benefits are well worth it. Actuaries tend to have very secure jobs, with little stress involved. The average salary is about $85,000.

2. Historian  A historian does just what you would expect; he or she gathers and studies information on certain aspects of the past. Sometimes historians write and publish reports on what they have learned about a distinct part of history. Others put the information they have gathered into an archive and organize it all in an orderly way. If you love to study history and analyze things that happened in the past, this is the job for you. Its laid-back work environment and the average salary of about $62,000 make it seem like a desirable job to obtain. There are many other reasons for pursuing a job of becoming a historian that are worth looking into.

3. Astronaut  This sounds like the type of job that we dreamed about when we were little, but it actually is a very good job to have. Besides the amazing perk of being able to travel in space, astronauts are able to make great scientific discoveries which can then be used to all of our benefits. You can earn up to $100,000 a year doing this fulfilling work. NASA is able to give more information on the journey to becoming an astronaut.

4.  Pilot  It would be helpful not to have a fear of heights with this job. :p Once they become captains, pilots can choose their own hours and fly when they want to. This gives them much more freedom with their personal lives and ensures that work will never get in the way of their plans. Pilots have extremely imortant jobs and their necessity won't be diminished any time soon. With an average salary of $81,000, it's hard to find many downsides to this career. There are many resources that can help you learn how to become a pilot

5. Video Game Designer  I think this career would be a lot of fun! It would involve coming up with great ideas for video games that appeal to a lot of people and turning those ideas into something concrete. A knowledge of computers and graphic design are essential to this job. It can pay between $46,000 and $70,000 a year, so it's well worth looking into. The industry has grown rapidly and will most likely continue to be in high demand.

6. Singer  It may be difficult for them to please every crowd and it might seem near to impossible to make it in this business but believe it or not, singers have one of the highest job satisfaction rates. According to one study, the satisfaction rate is 91.7. I believe it is extremely important to be content with the job you have, so this is why I consider this to be one of the best jobs to have. The road to becoming a professional singer is long and hard, but if you stick with it and believe in your talent then it's possible to make big money doing something you love. If this is your goal, you must master some skills to help you realize your full potential and be a professional singer.

8. Firefighter  This job should earn you some respect from most people because firefighters are a vital part of our community. The odd hours can be annoying and you would have to be willing to risk your life in order to save civillians if needed, but if these obstacles don't seem insurmountable to you, then you should go for it. There are many things you can do to prepare yourself to become a firefighter.

9. Surgeon  Besides being one of the highest paying jobs in the world, surgeons hold the power to save lives. This career requires a lot of time and effort, but the rewards are apparent. I personally think that a cardiologist would be the best kind of surgeon, but you can specialize in whichever area you prefer.

10. College Professor  This one may be surprising to you, but college professors actually have an extemely high satisfaction rate, at 79.2. They can make up to $550,000, but it takes a lot of hard work and time to get to that point. A good professor should enjoy being able to teach the next generations of young people some important subjects, but a lot of people like the career better for its security and its ability to get you published and noticed in the academic world. It is helpful to look a examples of how to become a very successful college professor.

Which Is Best For You?

These seem to me to be some of the best jobs to pursue, but truly every person must decide for himself (or herself) when trying to determine which career path to follow. This is often an extremely difficult decision to make because of the number of possibilities out there, but by finding one that appeals the most to you, your decision can be an educated one.
