1 Jeweler

You can make good money by selling quality jewelry.

CNBC reported that on a scale of one to 100, being a jeweler scored an 8.95 when it came to the stress level. The annual salary also comes out to $37K. You won’t be a millionaire, but, like wise men once said, “Money can’t buy you happiness” or peace for that matter.

It’s smooth sailing once you have the job, but if you are just selling diamonds that look like they belong on your 20-year-old bedazzled jeans, you probably won’t get that much clientele.

In an interview with jewelry designer Jill Manzara, she told The Art Career Project it took years of dedicated work to create diamonds that would shine on the market.

“I am a self-taught designer. It was a painful process that required years to develop. This bead obsession led me to my first business, and being a business owner required me to wear many hats,” she shared. “I spent many nights reading design books, practicing graphic design and researching techniques. I had to learn how to develop graphic art before I could truly start designing my own unique jewelry line.”

2 Hairdresser

Want to be a cut above the rest when it comes to lowering your stress level? Being a hairstylist is the way to go.

The Guardian reported that 70 percent of vocational workers felt more appreciated at work than white-collar employees. As far as the cash flow, it may be a little less than you bargained for, however. The average salary for a hairdresser is $25K a year. If you have magic hands, though, it could go up to $38K, as reported by Salary.com.

As for the satisfaction level, hairstylist Marcus Cummins tells The Guardian that there is more to being a hairstylist than meets the eye.

“I absolutely love what I do,” he said. The thing about hair is it’s very personal. You become a confidant, and as a hairdresser that’s the most important thing you never betray.”

4 Technical Writer

The waist trainer that you recently bought may be a little complicated to properly use. Or maybe you wish your new bookshelf’s manual was a little clearer with the directions.

Technical writers are the professionals who create the directions you need for your purchases. For all you creatives out there, though, keep in mind that this job may be too dry for you. It does, however, pay you a pretty penny.

Chron shares that entry-level technical writers make up to $40K dollars a year just to start. It also means that later down the road you will be making up to $74K dollars.

And what’s even better is that I’d Rather Be Writing.com reports that half of technical writers say that they work in a stress-free environment. Um, yes please?

5 Food Scientist

Food plus money equals true love.

Food scientists aka agricultural scientists test and examine food for their nutrition content and make sure it’s safe to eat. It pays big bucks and, according to The Financial Post, you won’t be losing any hair over it. The food-loving career ranks at a delicious 55.8 stress level out of 100. Yum.

Not as low as the stress levels of a jeweler, but it’s pretty in the middle.

In the end, though, if none of these jobs pique your interest, then look for something you love to do. Although you need to seriously consider your stress levels when picking a job, that’s not the only factor to consider.

As the queen, Maya Angelou, once said, “You can only become truly accomplished at something you love. Don’t make money your goal. Instead pursue the things you love doing and then do them so well that people can’t take their eyes off of you.”

Amen to that!
