5. Airline Pilot
With all the advances in technology today, it is easy to forget that the airline flights that allow us to travel most anywhere in the world within a matter of hours are controlled and operated by people. With the responsibility of safely delivering passengers, trade goods, relief packages and other items, airline pilots are given the extreme responsibility of safely transporting life and life saving goods every day.
Working as a pilot, the Bureau of Labor Statistics notes you can make around $98,000 per year. While this job has a nice paycheck, the dangers of flying in poor weather conditions, traveling to foreign regions, and needing to be able to cope with any mechanical issues that may arise while flying make this job particularly dangerous.
