Beyond doctors, some lawyers, and IT in California, who else is earning this much?

Met plenty of doctors and lawyers that regretted their profession choice because of stress, workload, time away from family, etc. I’ve met a lot of insurance agents through the years and never had one tell me they regretted it. Once established, it has to be one of the highest paying low stress gigs around. I am jealous every Tuesday early afternoon when one of my insurance buddies texts me asking to come the bar at some restaurant in 20 minutes to start drinking. And when another buddy calls me on a Wednesday wanting to know if I am ready to go duck hunting for the rest of the week.

Finance bros in NY and software engineers about 10-15 years+ into their careers.

Enterprise sellers can make this, but it's not consistent year after year.

300k not equal in most locations. And most doctors make around 100k which include pediatricians, er doctors, GP. Mostly you need a specialty as a doctor to clear 300k. Most lawyers are broke and living pay check to paycheck. And yes top real estate agents in high market but then again that 300k is equal to 100k in Louisiana.
