2. Elevator Installation and Repair Work - $105,750

There's nothing that feels more 'hands-on' or working class than a job which is essentially fixing things when they break, and installing them for the first time. People who work in elevator installation and repair workers are very similar to car mechanics; they're just working with a different type of machinery. Don't feel bad for them if you see them laboring away at the bottom of an elevator shaft, covered in oil - they're being paid very well for it.

To get into the trade you'll probably need to undertake an apprenticeship with an experienced worker, and more than likely a degree in engineering on top of that, but when you've obtained both those things you should start your new profession earning $73,000 a year. The top 10% earn more than $100,000. Do be prepared to be 'on call' 24/7 for when elevators break down, though.

Did You Know...

Over the years, weve seen so many food trends come and go, such as ramen burgers, matcha, and spiked ice-cream. Nowadays, were seeing another trend making waves in the food industry. How many times today have you seen an Instagram photo of a scoop of black ice cream, or a cup of black yogurt, or hamburgers with black buns? Indeed, the charcoal trend has taken the world by storm.

So, what gives your latte that deep black shade? Activated charcoal, or coconut ash, is produced by heating coconut shells to insanely high temperatures until theyre burnt to a crisp. The ashes are then increased in size by steaming at high temperatures. Through this process, the ashes become a strong detoxifier, mostly because they become extra absorbent. This product may be purchased in pill form, and promises to alleviate hangovers, minimize the effects of food poisoning, and fight the visible signs of aging.

Activated charcoal is said to boost ones energy as a result of decreasing toxins in the body. However, no evidence proves that detoxifying can lead to increased energy. Also, while it can help cure a hangover, it doesnt necessarily remove alcohol from your blood. It is also said to aid in debloating your stomach because it cleanses your colon but again, this all anecdotal and isnt supported by scientific evidence as of yet. All we can say for sure is that it is a proven detoxifier.
