Requiring a certain salary level is a common and reasonable filter for your job search. If you require a salary over $50,000, you have several job options at any education level, particularly in the healthcare, business and service industries. In addition to a salary position, there are also several hourly jobs that earn more than $50,000 per year. For context, assuming a 40-hour work week, $50,000 per year is roughly $25 per hour.
If you do not have a degree, earning potential increases with years of experience. There are also many options for those with an associate degree or trade certification, like real estate agents who are required to get their real estate license and earn about $69,000 yearly on average. If you have or plan on earning a bachelor’s, master’s degree or higher, there are even more possibilities to earn over $50,000 annually.
