Physicists – $117,040
If you ever wondered if Albert Einstein was paid with a big salary, well we can say that if he was a physicist in 2015 he would have earned a six figure sum.
Basically the profession is pretty hard to do, physics being one domain that not everybody understands.
The physicists have applications in many areas of work like atomic physics, particle physics, molecular physics, geophysics, plasma physics, biophysics and also in domains like aerospace, nuclear energy and space technology.
With such a large pallet of domains the modern Isaac Newton will have a good life while his median salary starts somewhere at $117,000 a year.
