I know that some dump truck drivers can earn up to $200k per year. What qualifications do you need to drive a mining dump truck?

I have also heard of general labourers earning $100k per year. How do I apply for such jobs?

Actually, yeah. Engineers off shore on the Hibernia oil field of Newfoundland make upwards of 180k a year.

Look at the size of that fucker. Biggest off-shore rig on the planet.

And earn every penny--it is very difficult and dangerous work.

Just ask those ten-year olds in Africa getting a dollar a day panning gold at the wildcat mines.

Move to Alberta. You're not going to make that much though.
