The big bucks

Do you dream of earning the big bucks without having to deal with the extreme stress that goes with top-paying jobs? A high-salary, low-stress job sounds too good to be true but there are plenty of rewarding, angst-less jobs out there that come with generous salaries.
Some of the highest-stress jobs pay surprisingly low salaries. Police officers and firefighters quite possibly have the most nerve-racking jobs in the world, yet most of them earn less than $45,000 a year. What about our nation's finest in combat who face death on a daily basis? They typically earn less than $30,000 a year.

In other words, high stress does not always equal a hefty salary, or vice versa. Fortunately, there are plenty of laid-back career choices that pay quite generously.
