It's easy to see how messed up we are as a society just by looking at how much money some people make in comparison to the amount of work they actually do.

Thanks to AskReddit, we've collected some of the most overvalued and absolutely overpaid jobs out there. Obviously, there are the easy ones; hospital CEOs, gaming CEOs, and pretty much any CEO out there who has no clue what they're doing/isn't doing anything and gets paid a ton for it.

Knowing the CEO of one of the largest video game companies. CEO. He doesn't know anything about the industry and spends most of his time at the gym. -businesslut

Anything that could be reduced to "I make a lot of money because I move a lot of money", like brokers, insurers, wall street stuff. -_BlueFire_

College football coaches. The highest-paid public employees in many states, and is even more egregious considering for decades the students were not allowed to make money from endorsement deals and whatever. Glad that has changed, but it's still ludicrous for Alabama or Mississippi for example to sink so much money into their football programs when the rest of the two states struggle in almost every other metric. -ShaneSeeman

Hospital CEO’s… and actually almost all hospital upper management. There are so many layers of management that many of them barely step foot into a healthcare facility EVER, let alone EVER speak to a patient, yet all of them make 6, 7, 8 figure salaries plus mega bonuses.

My hospital network CEO makes $11 million salary not including bonuses, which bothers me, but bothers me even more are all the board members and staff directly under him making nearly as much. It’s hundreds of millions of wasted money paid to the people trying to get out of good pay and forcing patients into paying big bills. -Uajpqsa

I still don't know what big-firm "consultants" do. -moeriscus

One night I babysat three kids for about 2 hours or so. The kids went to bed when I got there, and the parents had left dinner out for me, so all I did was eat their food and watch their TV and pet their dogs.

When they got home the mom paid me $100. I told her that was way too much. She slurred "Don't worry about it, I'm drunk." And then I noticed her fly was down. So that was the most over paid job ever lol. -RootMan322

CEOs. -GrilledStuffedDragon

Mine. I am a DevOps engineer at a fintech startup, I write server configurations for $125K/yr and I work about 10 - 20 hours a week, remotely. I keep thinking they’ve figured out how easy my job is and decided to fire me and then instead they tell me I’m doing a great job and promote me. I smoked weed all through college and got a degree in philosophy, and did not go to grad school. -C4TERW4L

My IT director. He's never around, automates his email, and he has his own company. -ds_vii

Life coach. -thewezel1995

I was originally hired to be the manager of a new project, but the project was never launched and I had a long term contract. After 5 months of being paid by only clocking in and out without doing any actual work, someone saw me in the pool for available associates and invited me to join their project as a frontline agent.

Apparently at some moment the database just marked me as an available employee, without mentioning the rank I had been hired for. I stayed in the company for 6 years, getting paid the salary of a manager, but with the responsibilities of a regular agent. I rejected every offer for "growth" I had, as I was only working there to pay for a debt. In the end, I made my money with very little stress, and left the company in great terms. -flacocaradeperro

Firefighters and paramedics are in the same boat. $60-80k a year in some places to pick up old people off the floor. -MockASonOfaShepherd

My uncle was a commercial airline pilot. He described his job as “vastly overpaid in normal circumstances." -idreallyrathernotktx

About two-thirds of the upper-level admins at the university I work for. -min_mus

Realtor. While I believe they can provide value in some situations, technology has put a lot of the work into the buyer’s hands.

You find places you like, send them to a realtor, they walk you through and point out which rooms are bathrooms, print out a mountain of paper for you to sign and … BOOOM $50,000 commission. -lump77777
