Not every gig requires a PhD, and sometimes the biggest paychecks go to the people who don’t exactly need to be geniuses. Someone online straight-up asked: “What job has dumb people that make good money?”—and the answers are 🔥.
Here are some highlights from the thread:
👉 Sales — The #1 answer. You don’t need to be a brainiac, but you do need persistence and charisma.
👉 Real Estate Agents — Closing deals = $$$.
👉 Insurance & Business Healthcare — Big bucks, not a ton of book smarts required.
👉 Oil & Gas Drilling — Hard work, high pay.
👉 Influencers & OnlyFans — The internet money-making game is strong.
👉 Politicians — …no explanation needed. 😂
👉 Sanitation Workers — Garbage pays better than some college degrees.
👉 Truck Drivers, Longshoremen, Auto Repair — Blue-collar jobs that stack cash.
👉 Professional Athletes — Brains optional, talent required.
👉 Televangelists — If you can sell faith, you can sell anything.
👉 Middle Management — Somehow always making money without doing too much.
Of course, not all of these are “easy” jobs—plenty are tough physically or come with their own risks. But the point stands: you don’t always need to be Einstein to earn a solid paycheck. 💼💵
Would you trade brainpower for one of these gigs? 👀
