6. Special agent
Ok, this one on our list of weird jobs that make over $100000 a year isn’t as strange as other weird jobs that make over $100,000 a year, but we added it for the cool factor. Whether your idol is Agent K or Fox Mulder, special agents have the aura of mystery around them few other jobs can provide. Plus, you get to wear a badge and a gun. The downsides include boring suits and a ton of paperwork if those TV shows are to be believed. A median annual salary for special agents is $77,000, but there are plenty of them that earn $100,000 and more.
