Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
Historian (which requires either a masters or doctorate), and from a previous post: analyst, archivist, broadcaster, campaign worker, consultant, congressional aide, editor, foreign service officer, foundation staffer, information specialist, intelligence agent, journalist, legal assistant, lobbyist, personnel manager, public relations staffer!. also, you can pursue a law degree, which I seriously considered before deciding on teaching and writing!. Harry Turtledove, author of numerous alternate history novels, is a history professor!. Salary varies from position to position, but lobbyist is probably high on the list!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Historian generally work for museams or teach at universities, further study could make you and archiologist, also museam or leatcurer at university!. a lot of study for not much pay so you have to be very dedicated, It would be fun thoughWww@QuestionHome@Com

Any four year bachelor degree is a step forward to a good employment opportunity!. I have 10 credit hours, you can make history your minor!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Tour guide at historic homes or a guide for something Colonial Williamsburg!. Or even for the National Park Service, which would make you a government employee!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

A history Teacher is about all!. Maybe a Museum worker if it specializes in your area of study!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
