It depends on what you are doing and where you live. Some places pay more because the cost of living in higher (such as the Bay Area and New York). A good salary is something that allows you to live your life happily (and responsibly) while still having enough to put some money in savings each month. If you tell us what majors you are considering, we can probably help with more accurate numbers and tell you how lucrative the fields are.

a stable salary is one that meets all your desires and a minimum of a few of your needs. And what greenback volume it takes to try this relies upon extraordinarily on the place you reside and how you opt to stay. I had a severe college instructor In la who no longer purely survived on a unmarried instructor's salary (i.e. no longer lots) yet traveled the international on it. you're outstanding concerning the midsection type disappearing. further and extra persons are slipping into the ranks of the working poor as wages are not keeping up with the cost of residing and advantages are being decreased. it is unhappy what number no longer difficulty-free working human beings won't be in a position to discover a activity that has medical advantages.

Depends on the job, and on where you are located. A good salary in the midwest might be really low in places like LA, NYC or Boston. And a good salary for a medical doctor would be much higher than for many other jobs.

Go to your library (either school or city) and ask the librarian where you can look at their copy of "Occupational Handbook' put out by the Federal Government. It describes jobs, what the duties are, the pay scales are, et.al.
