The Bureau of Labor Statistics has tracked the average wage of 820 occupations and Reddit user Dan Lin has put the information into a really great graph.

If you’re worried about being underpaid and would like official data to make your case on Monday, go search mean-wage tables at the BLS site here.

Although the richest occupations tracked by the Bureau are basically all doctors, the landscape of wealth changes when you zoom in on the richest 0.1 percent of the country, which is heavy with chief executives and financiers. Click the pic to enlarge.
