No. 4: Lawyers and judges
While most people don’t really enjoy dealing with men of the law, lawyers and judges are generally respected professionals, mainly because it takes years of studying and hard exams to make it in this field. Annual salaries can vary quite a lot, depending on the experience and specific niche, with the mention that judges tend to make a bit more than lawyers. Nonetheless, the national average for a lawyer is still over $130,000 a year, according to the US Bureau of Labor.
