No I think the most stressful jobs in the world are the ones in which people work very hard putting in 70 or 80 hours per day and can't seem to make ends meet due to the rising cost of living, which, according to our Governmental (emphasis on mental) Economists would have the public believe, is stagnant. That is if you don't include food or energy. I wonder how long we would survive without food or energy. My point is that the stress that is witnessed by day to day survival of the working poor is much greater then that of any politician who was born with a silver spoon in his mouth and have had everything handed to him on a silver platter.

Anybody who thinks that being president is like being on vacation is simply ignorant. The president is in charge of one of the most powerful countries in the world. He has to make decisions that can change the lives of millions of people every day. That is a lot of stress.

It has to be ONE of the most stressful. Every problem concering the free world crosses their desk. Some of the problems they can pass on to others, in the end it is their neck on the line when something goes wrong.

No. I think being a marine in a war zone is the most stressful job in the world.

Yes. They really do age terribly. And almost all experience some health problems while in office.

Nope, Driving a 18 wheeler in the tri-state area everyday is more stressful

I'm sure that it tops the list. Someone before me stated that he takes a lot of vacations, do you honestly think that he is truly on vacation - he is on 24 hour call, it's not like he can call in sick!

I think being a doctor that specializes in childhood cancer is the most stressful.

No I dont believe so. There are other more stressful jobs, such as neuro surgeons. Being a President is like being on a vacation.
