In the business arena, most people are gunning for dollars and not a deep, fulfilling experience with their chosen profession. But there are some jobs in the business world that are actually high on the meaningful side. PayScale found that 70% of financial advisors said their jobs were meaningful, which blows away the 19 other jobs listed, with next closest, finance director, at 56%. We guess helping people, whether they're poor or wealthy, is pretty darn satisfying.
If you get an accounting degree, there's a really good chance that when you get a job it'll be with others who have an accounting degree. More than any other business degree in the best paying jobs listed above did accounting degree holders stick together. For instance, 76% of CPAs had an accounting degree — not an earth-shattering revelation, but much higher than supply chain analysts or financial managers, at 37% and 50%, respectively. So, check out the list above and see what the 20 best paying jobs are for business majors — and if you have an accounting degree, as we've found in the other years, feel free to celebrate. --- Related on ThinkAdvisor:
