Question: What is a good art major that pays really well!?!?
I'm currently a junior in high school!.
Well, I really want to major in graphic design, but I searched online!.!.and it pays a little bit!.!.I think about $35,000 a year!. I think thats way too low for annual salary!. I went on collegeboard!.com and it saids that to be graphic designer, you have to work long hours!.!.!.!.!.!.!.well it sucks that if you work long hours in a career and not be paid well!. So, my question is, what are some other art majors that pays well and not require really hard work!?!? By paying well, I mean at least over $60,000 a year!. My mom wants me to major in Animation!.!.!.but I never have an interest in that!.!.!.!.!.!.and I really do love drawing on the computer more than on paper!. I'm kinda undecided now, before I knew I wanted to be a graphic designer!.!.!.but now, I just don't know since the salary for graphic design is fairly low!.
also, if you know any career test that I could take online, please give me links!
Thanks!Www@QuestionHome@Com

lol!.!.!.!. well im an art teacher, and I started at 32,000!.!.!. and hell, I was happy to have a job!!.!.!.
to be honest, the best paying jobs are:
1!. being a famous artist, which takes years, if not decades to accomplish!.
2!. be a curator of a major museum, which takes a long time as well!.
!.!.!.but no offense, and I see this from my other students as well!.!.!.!. there are not a lot of jobs where you can make a lot of money and not work hard!.!.!.!. if there were, do you know how hard those jobs would be to get!?!
hard work= money
easier work= expect the 25k-35k range!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
If you make it as a 'graphic designer' the rewards can be astronomical!. Start of by involving yourself in something you enjoy as a major!. This Will encourage your creativity and lead you along exciting paths!.
If you make $$$$$ your reason for living you will find a great big hole in yourself and your life at some stage!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
Most jobs that pay really well require hard work!. You might have to start out with a salary you consider low, and work your way up!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
