I would not look at the best paying job. I would ask myself what job would I do if they didn't pay me. If the best paying job is something you don't like, I would not even look at going into that field.

1. Surgeons: Surgeons, particularly those specializing in complex procedures, tend to have some of the highest salaries in healthcare.
2. Anesthesiologists: Anesthesiologists are responsible for administering anesthesia during surgical procedures and often earn high salaries.
3. Orthodontists: Orthodontists specialize in diagnosing and treating dental and facial irregularities, and their expertise is well compensated.
4. Psychiatrists: Psychiatrists diagnose and treat mental health disorders and can earn substantial incomes.
5. Chief Medical Officers: Chief Medical Officers are senior executives who oversee medical operations in healthcare organizations and are often among the highest-paid professionals in the field.
It's important to note that salaries can vary based on factors such as location, experience, and demand. It's always a good idea to research specific careers and consult reliable salary resources for the most accurate and up-to-date information.

Typically, the highest paid nurse are nurse anesthesiologists (CRNA).
But typically the higher the pay, the more stress and pressure to perform well.
Pursue roles that are aligned with what you want to do, don't just follow the money.
If you want to get into nursing, try starting at your community College (it'll save time and money). Once you work as an ASN- your employer will likely be able to cover the costs of additional schooling to get a BSN or MSN.
