Look, I read the Instagram comments. I get it. I know you want a job that pays over $100,000 with all the eligibility requirements of a part-time cat-sitting gig. You want a six-figure salary for your stunning accomplishments like fluency in one language and the ability to hold your breath for thirty seconds. Face it: that job does NOT exist!
While I might not be able to solve that puzzle for you, if you’re looking to be paid well despite having little experience, these jobs might be what you’re looking for. Often, you’ll need to be physically fit and/or willing to work long hours. I’m sorry, man, this is the best I could do.
