Education
Teaching is considered as one of the noblest professions but in reality it disappoints in terms of ROI. Many of us think that it stands to the reason that these degree holders get paid in great sums for shaping the minds of future generations. But in reality it doesn’t quite work out that way.
Among the three commonly held jobs in education that are stacked up to receive the worst ever ROI include daycare center teacher, elementary school teacher and high school teacher.
Fine Arts
Artists are well respected, revered and celebrated. But do they receive the same treatment when it comes to return on investment? Well certainly not.
Though the real trick with these degree holders is to achieving whatever they wish to while they’re still alive. These individuals still starve to get that recognition that is required and find themselves in a big mess.
Museum research worker, graphic designer, and painter/illustrator, are the three commonly held jobs by workers with a fine arts degree and it’s also the jobs that receive the least return on investment.
Sociology
People who enter the field of sociology generally are interested in helping their fellow man. Unfortunately, that kind of kindness has really not translated to wealth, as this is one of those professions that have the worst return on investment.
The commonly held jobs that have got the worst ROI under this profession include social worker, corrections officer, and chemical dependency counselor.
