I don't know but I doubt that the focus is on business owners.

Well said. Your doubt is sure based on business owners. I also run my private lab and its more benefiting than be a mere salary depending manager.

Its a new Lab and I'm yet to employ a staff probably cos my schedule warrants it for now.

Oh ok, agreed!

STEM fields pay extremely well. Eventually a Lab Tech will make some good money though as a junior scientist.

Lab Techs don't necessarily make 'great' money. That depends more on the location tho (supply and demand). One of our Med Techs moved to Cali, and he now makes double what the Techs here are making.

(Your Q is probably in reference to Nigeria tho smiley)

That's true but you also have to realize miss that the cost of living in certain parts of California (San Francisco Bay area, Orange County near Los Angeles, San Diego, etc.) are extremely high in comparison to other parts of the United States (save Manhattan).

Considered. You know, a lot of people prefer commuting to bustling cities as opposed to living in them? I forget where I was told he lived, but I remember her saying his cost of living is quite decent (he is single tho). He makes almost $50/hr. I almost shyt my pants when I heard that! lipsrsealed tongue The techs that work graveyards with me (graves get a bit more pay) get paid around half that, and they all collectively shytt their pants, turned in their notices, and packed their bags post-haste to the land of the shining sun grin (jk).

That's very good money that he is making, that in US currency is $104,000 a year or roughly the equivalent of $2000 a week (there are 52 weeks in a year anyways). That is above what 92% of the people in the United States make as individuals. That's a very good salary, and as aforementioned typically people in the STEM fields make such salaries.

The reason I didn't list athletes like some people here are listing is because of the fact hardly anyone becomes a "professional athlete". I am also under the belief system that athletes make too much money for what they actually do for their respective societies.

Your colleagues in MN aren't doing badly though. $25/hr is roughly $52,000/year which isn't great but can earn you a decent living where you live in that part of the United States.

Yh. I honestly still don't believe it tbh lol. I'm gonna have to re-confirm, but I heard $46/hr to be exact.

I don't live in MN.

Oh I'm sorry I thought you mentioned that you lived in the snow belt of the United States in MN, that's my fault.

$104,000 a year is quite a lot of money for a lot of people. It's possible he's making that much, but it's also possible that his salary is being blown out of proportion.

LOL true, there is typically a particular range like a senior scientist may make from $80k to $110k. But what you are describing is double the amount expected so shocked shocked shocked shocked

Are you talking of the number of people who become professional sportsmen? If so you must consider that sport has a very wide definition and covers more than just "athlete". The professional race car driver, the professional motorcycle racer, etc are all considered sportsmen so if volume of people involved is your definition of what constitutes a career then sports definitely has it.

Yep, I meant someone considered a professional athlete, like a pro footballer playing for Barcelona or Chelsea, or someone who plays America's variation of "football" the majority of people do not become professional athletes, regardless of sport (some of these sports are questionable about whether or not they should be called sports like Nascar driving or Golf ROFLLL). In any case, less than 1% of the population ever become professional athletes (much less).
