What is the highest paying job in your nation?

What is the highest paying job in your nation?

In the UEG, working in the UNSC Defense Force gives you the highest amounts of money (when there is long term war) and politicians get equal pay (When in peace or a not so serious combative problem.)

Of course CEO's can also rake in some serious cash but thats mostly the pay the receive due to all the profits.
"For too many years, humanity was on the backfoot. Reacting to threats, rather than preventing them. Rest of the galaxy was bigger than us. Stronger than us. We were mice, hiding in the shadows, hoping the giants would not see us. No more. Humanity is no longer on the defense. We are the giants now."


"It is an undeniable and may I say fundamental quality of man, that when faced with extinction, every alternative is preferable."
—Leonard Church

Everyone here's a scientist. The pay differs based on what you discover or invent, how useful this discovery or invention is, and who purchases the intellectual rights to your discoveries or inventions.

The Regent Board probably makes the most money since they act as government officials (the only ones in the whole country - we're not terribly fond of the bureaucracy) AND scientists. That's an unfair comparison, though, since they do twice the work but make only around one-and-a-half times as much as the average scientist.

Officially, there are no "highest paying job" as everyone has the same livable wages.

The Income Equality Act of 1988 prohibits all salaries of over £100,000 per year.

There are currently 260 people recieving the maximum salary, most of whom are businessmen that run the country's few remaining large corporations.

The Chairman of the Labour Party has unrestricted access to an annual expense account of £20,000,000, although his official salary is only £6,000.

It would most likely be one of the countless corporate executives of the Gryphon Oligarchy of Zephyr, arguably the wealthiest non-government influenced territory in Sani and the wider Confederacy. So it'd likely be somewhere in the low millions (2-3) and that's discounting their often ridiculous stock gains as well.

According to TerraFinance Magazine, the highest paying position is US$38,400,000 (47573760 Valimas) or 20000 per hour. The CEO of a shipping company makes that much.

- Scientists of the Starlight Think Tank in Magi are considered higher than even Sol-Luna Party Councillors. They are probably the most paid outside of the Royal Family and the Chancellors who lead the Sol-Luna Party's branches.

- Businessmen. While much of their income is taken through taxes (anyone who earns more than 20x that of an average worker gets taxed equal to how much over that 20x is) , none of their property is taken beyond the property tax. Meaning those who control oil fields, farms, or large buildings are considered VERY rich as land is a very popular commodity, especially farmland.

Depends on the importance of the Family in question but generally they make anywhere from in excess of 3,500,000 per year to 12,000,000 per year.

Fatatatutti's economy works on the sensible principle that you have to pay people to do what they don't want to do, since they'll gladly do something they enjoy for nothing. Hence, the hghest paying jobs are the least desirable jobs. For example, hi-rise window cleaning is very highly paid because it's almost impossible to get anybody to do it (due to the endemic dislike of heights). Politicians aren't paid at all because there are people lining up to do it.

On a semi-related note, Alphonse's income tax return for last year listed an income of zero, which is right on the national average for a duck. You don't have to pay him to be a duck.

His refund was denied.

The highest paying job in my nation?

Well considering the fact that the 4% of the Nation are 1% American Rich, the highest paying job no doubt is modeling, second to acting. Although there are people who serve the nation in clean, they're not so poor as they get paid $40,000 a year. The highest paying job ranges from 500,000 a year to at least 58,000,000 a year
Royaume de Lessines :: Koninkrijk van Lessines
Région de Lausanne :: Regio van Venhuizen
Lessines is the typical definition of a political anarchy, where as there are pretender thrones to the Lessinian Government. There is no real authority over Lessines, whereas 2 smaller regions, which are divided in culture and language maintains order in their divided borders. A once united republic now fallen.

The government of Williamsnation employs a large percentage of our population. Every government job From the fields of science, criminology, Engineering, Education and many others are regulated by a very strict pay scale. A police officer who has been on the job for 5 years and has had good reports makes the same whether they live in the Urban Northern District of Williamsnation or the less populated Southern District of Williamsnation.

Privately owned companies are allowed to set their own wages. There is no government set minimum wage for private businesses. This is possible because the private industry has to keep wages competitive with the government in order to attract employees.
