  • Everyone talks about how you have to become an entrepreneur to stand a chance to become

  • a millionaire, but most millionaires become one by having a high paying job. They might

  • not drive supercars or fly private because it's so expensive even most millionaires can't

  • afford that, but nevertheless, they have a net wroth of over a million dollars.

  • If you land a high paying job, you almost certainly will become a millionaire in your

  • lifetime, no wonder why 40 percent of millionaires are in the United States.

  • But what are the highest paying jobs? What are the jobs that almost certainly can turn

  • you into a millionaire? You will find that out in this video, so give this video a thumbs

  • up and subscribe if you are new around, and let's get right into it.

  • Number 1: Commission based job

  • this not what you have expected, and if you take a look at any statistics, you will not

  • find this at the top of the highest-paying jobs, but a commission-based job will give

  • you the highest possible chance to become a millionaire. When you have a traditional

  • job, you are usually paid based on your time. If you work this many hours, you get paid

  • this much. No matter how much you get paid per hour, what's certain is you have a limited

  • number of hours a day, so even if you are paid a thousand dollars an hour, you cant

  • work for more than 10 or 12 hours a day because you will have to sleep and take care of your

  • other needs. So you are limited to 12K hours a day, but if you are paid based on your results,

  • then you have the freedom to come up with more creative ways to sell.

  • Let's, you are a real estate agent, and you get paid a tiny percentage out of each house

  • that you sell. Now it doesn't matter how many hours you work. It all comes down to how many

  • houses you sell and how expensive these houses are. You can improve your negations skills,

  • find more creative ways to find clients, and build strong connections with people who can

  • afford to buy a house, and instead of selling a 200K dollar house, sell a 20 million dollar

  • house. A single transaction can literally earn you more money than most people make

  • in an entire year. 
2. Anaesthesiologist

  • It doesn't matter what statistics you look. Anesthesiologists are always at the top of

  • the heighest earners. It seems like the most certain path to become a millionaire is to

  • become an Anesthesiologist. of course, it's not easy. It takes years of dedication, commitment,

  • and discipline, but with an average salary of 340K, I think it worth it, and that is

  • the average, imagine how much the highest earners in this field make. I won't be surprised

  • if its millions of dollars, maybe even tenths of millions of dollars. in fact, the starting

  • salary of an Anesthesiologist in the US is around 200K dollars.

  • Of course, a big chunk of this paycheck will definitely go to taxes since income tax grows

  • higher and higher as you make more money, but that is still an incredibly huge number.

  • Number 3, doctors If you visit the official website of the bureau

  • of labor statistics and take a look at the highest-paid occupations, you will find out

  • that the top 10 occupations are all in one way or another are medical professions. Psychiatrists,

  • surgeons, gynecologists have all dominated the list.

  • No wonder why becoming a doctor is such a prestigious job, I guess a big portion of

  • millionaires in the country are doctors. Even if it takes you ten years to become a qualified

  • doctor, with an average salary of 200 to 300K dollars, its just a matter of a few years

  • before you will be able to save a millon dollars. I am still surprised why my parents didn't

  • insist on me becoming a doctorDespite that astronomical salary, it doesn't

  • make sense to pick a job just because it pays better. I would have turned into a horrible

  • doctor since it's not something that I am passionate about, and it takes unbelievable

  • discipline and hard work to become one. So, don't let any of these salaries fool you

  • if you are not passionate about it because it takes at least 10 to 14 years to become

  • a qualified doctor. 
number 4 cybersecurity -

  • Another field that pays really high is cybersecurity. When the internet was invented, no one thought

  • that it could be so big. We are at that point where imagining life without the internet

  • is impossible. In fact, if it wasn't for the internet, you wouldn't be able to watch this

  • video. It gave us an opportunity to connect the entire planet into one place. It's just

  • unbelievable that you can pick up your phone in Florida and connect to someone who is on

  • the other part of the planet in real-time. It also transformed the financial industry.

  • Sending money to someone was a nightmare just a few decades ago. Now you can do it from

  • the comfort of your couch, but that comfort came with a lot of risks. Whatever is online

  • is vulnerable to hackers. While everyone wants to be able to quickly send money, no one wants

  • their bank account information be stolen and misused.

  • In 2017, hackers stole over 172 billion dollars. That's like hackers stealing Jeff Bezos's

  • entire net worth overnight and leaving him with just 10 billion dollars. That's why companies

  • are pouring billions of dollars to make their systems safe and secure. If your credit card

  • data gets stolen once, you probably won't purchase anything from that website again.

  • So companies are paying an average salary of 250K dollars if you can help them to protect

  • their systems. if you are a good hacker, you can definitely become a good cybersecurity

  • expert. But if you don't want to save your paycheck for a few years at least to be able

  • to call yourself a self-made millionaire, try hacking an iPhone. If you successfully

  • hack the iPhone, Apple is offering between $100,000 and $1 million for anyone who can

  • hack an iPhone. And that's not unique to apple. Facebook, Google, and other tech companies

  • offer similar bounties, but apple by far offers the biggest paycheck.

  • 
5. data scientist Have you ever heard that: "Data Is the New

  • Oil of the Digital Economy." since the dot com bubble, data has become the most valuable

  • commodity on the market. In the past, if you would start a business,

  • you had to research the market and find out what is in demand. If pink t-shirt were trending,

  • all you had to do is order a ton of pink t-shirts and price them competitively and just hope

  • that you can sell them. But that has changed. With the rise of social media, you no longer

  • have to guess. People are giving away their data for free; what they like? What are they

  • interested in? And what they are ready to pay for?

  • You no longer have to guess. You can find clients who are ready to pay for your products

  • just by running some online ads. But most of these data are usually messy, and the job

  • of a data scientist is to structure them and make a sense out of them so that it could

  • be useful. the average salary of data scientists is over 122K dollars. in fact, as the number

  • of internet users grows every year, the demand for data scientists would grow as well

  • 6. petroleum engineer While data is the new oil, the actual oil

  • is still here and doesn't seem to go anywhere anytime soon. Of course, it will become less

  • relevant every year since we are moving to renewable energy sources, but we are still

  • far away from building electric planes or rockets. Rockets or planes are so heavy that

  • they need an enormous amount of energy to overcome gravity and fly, so Petroleum engineering

  • is still a field that pays a lot. We all want every car in the street to be electric, but

  • even according to Elon Musk, it will take us at least 20 more years.

  • The starting salary of a petroleum engineer is over 77.5K dollars, and an experienced

  • engineer easily makes over 135K dollars. While it's not as much as what you would get as

  • a doctor, it is still enough to provide you with a pretty comfortable life and turn you

  • into a millionaire in the long run, especially if you work slightly harder and become better

  • than the average engineer. 


  • 7. corporate lawyer. 


  • No matter where or when. Lawyers seem to always be at the top of the highest earners. While

  • not all lawyers make a lot of money, corporate lawyers who work for a giant corporation are

  • known to make fortunes. A company gets into a lawsuit. If it loses, it might have to pay

  • hundreds of millions of dollars, if not billions, so it hires the best lawyers in the world

  • to win the lawsuit and pays them a fortune. Companies usually have anything from a few

  • lawsuits to dozens if not hundreds running at the same time. So if you are a good corporate

  • lawyer, expect calls from the world's largest corporations.

  • But if you end up just an average lawyer, that's also not bad because the average base

  • salary starts at 110K dollars. If you also include commissions, bonuses, that number

  • could double or triple. 


  • Before we end this video, I just want to say that it doesn't matter what industry you get

  • it and what job you end up getting. It all comes down to you, to your discipline, creativity,

  • and commitment. If you are good at what you do, if you are better than your competitors,

  • then you will certanly be rewarded for your effort and the value you bring in, so focus

  • on becoming the best in whatever you do. And don't forget that you can get four free

  • stocks from we bull if you use the link in the description.

  • Thanks for watching and until next time.
