Reporters & Correspondents Among Forbes' List of Surprisingly Low-Paying Jobs

Sorry to share some bleak news on a Monday but after we read this piece on Forbes about the most surprising low-paying jobs, we just had to share.

To clarify, by low-paying they’re referring to not only occupations that pay an annual salary less than $50,000. They also allude to jobs which make you turn heads wondering how they got on the list in the first place.

For starters, although reporters and correspondents are in the list with a mean annual income of $43,640, courtesy of data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics, there is some good news.

They’re in good company! That is, surrounded by other low paying occupations that are respectful in their own right such as firefighters, marriage and family therapists and surgical technologists.
