A physical therapist will make anywhere from 40k to 90k a year. A lawyer will do about the same based on several different factors.

In all U.S. States, physical therapists must graduate from an accredited physical therapist educational program and pass a licensure exam before they can begin practicing. There are about 200 accredited physical therapist programs in the U.S., offering both master’s and doctoral degrees. These programs begin by covering the basic sciences, such as biology, chemistry, and physics, and then move on to more advanced courses, such as biomechanics, neuroanatomy, human growth and development, manifestations of disease, examination techniques, and therapeutic procedures. Many programs require students to participate as a volunteer in a physical therapy department of a hospital or clinic before they can graduate. Physical therapists are usually required to continue their education throughout their careers, and some States require this in order to renew licenses.

To become a lawyer, you will have to do four years undergrad, and then three years graduate.

There are plenty of awesome paying jobs: CEO of a huge corporation, telecommunications (my boyfriend works in this field and makes 130k/year), surgeons, salesmen for companies, marketing professionals, etc, etc, etc.

Don’t pick a career based on the salary, salaries can be deceiving. Find something that interests you and you think you would love to do; then look up the expected salary and be content with that.
