13. Dentist

Average Salary: $174,110

I'm sure we've all been to the dentist at some point in our lives. And you're well aware that a good one isn't cheap, especially if you're caught off guard and require an unexpected procedure.

All of those surprises and regular check-ups can add up to a sizable revenue stream for most dental practices.

You will need to put in a lot of time studying, get through a lot of exams, and really hone your craft and reputation to get to that level, though.

Any problems with your teeth and gums must be examined, diagnosed, and treated by a dentist.

The good news is that everyone has teeth, so if you're skilled and reliable, you'll always have clients.
