    Where I live college professors are extremely well paid. Well, at least in private colleges.

    TAs earn nearly nothing though.

        Here in the UK the average processor salary is £79k per annum. Which is more than double the average UK salary and that’s something you can expect in many senior roles across various industries. These numbers are the median average.

          There’s also the issue of 79k being not really enough to live on in the US, considering recent inflation, the housing market, child care costs, medical bills.

            Who cares? It’s plenty to live in the UK.

                Good for you, but your point was that you don’t believe that professors earn good salaries. Well, they do. In developed countries.

                    The question was about professors specifically.
