Which profession is grossly overpaid?

And which profession is underpaid and undervalued?

 

[ihopethisispainless]

People who trade stocks bonds and other assets. Big bubble and a lot of resources go toward that and will ultimately make us much poorer and unequal

Overpaid: Lawyers and politicians, lobbyists

Underpaid: Teachers and EMTs

Most things to do with healthcare or social work are horribly underpaid for the workload and importance to society. Entertainment, fossil fuel, banking industries are all criminally overvalued while keeping the ball rolling to our inevitable decline as a species while we drag the rest of the fauna with us.

With the current technology and resources I'll give the least nuanced answer possible and say that any profession that leaves you struggling to make ends meet is underpaid, anyone working should have their basic needs covered and a little extra for emergencies or you know... to live a life for something other than being a wage slave.

Overpaid: All those earning more than you could possibly spend in a reasonable life without massive excesses, income that enables spending ludicrous amounts on the most trivial and ridiculous things. Money hoarders and eccentrics detached from the daily life of us dumbass mortals living paycheck to paycheck, I don't care what contribution they made to society, other people shouldn't starve so you can afford the newest $10,000 gucci bag every week or whatever the fuck.

Wish I could this twice. Didn't even think to mention it because I don't think of stealing people's money because they had the audacity to need housing as a "profession".

A lot of doctors are grossly overpaid for the amount of shit they give.

 

[BeansOfRequirement]

Gamers and NEETs are underpaid.

 

[Hollowman]

Psychiatrists are way overpaid for doing so little.

 

[MicropBaldCurrycel]

Sports Persons .

Some are getting like 50 Million a year to kick a ball about.

Also actors.

I think this is a difficult question. It depends a lot on the country we live in.

In my country judges, lawyers, managers, accountants, IT people, politicians, doctors, etc. earn well.

On the other hand, veterinarians, secretaries, teachers, security guards, etc. unfortunately earn little.

Real Estate agents. What exactly do they do that is worth 6% on the same of a house?

 

[Al Cappella]

CEOs and the folks that own sports teams—that can sign a contract for hundreds of millions of dollars…

They break their backs trying to look good for pictures.

Sports players. Influencers. Twitch streamers. Whatever the fuck Gwyneth Paltrow is doing. YouTubers, especially "tea" channels and those who just take other people's content and then react to it with a bunch of dumb editing, sound effects and memes that have been beaten to death.

Teachers, service workers and cleaners are underpaid. The amount of patience that is required to put up with the constant amount of shit (sometimes even literally) that comes with these jobs is on a whole other level.

Underpaid : Caretakers / Overpaid : Politicians, Cosmetic Surgeons

No one's more underpaid than teachers, especially the well meaning ones that put their whole life and soul into teaching. So depressing to see the people meant to help educate children get paid lint and dust.
