Q) What kinds of jobs make lots of money?
A) There are several jobs that pay well.
For one, professionals such as lawyers and doctors earn high salaries. This is
because they have skills and knowledge that can only be picked up through long,
difficult studies. Also, celebrities also earn significant amounts of money.
Especially, famous actors and singers often get paid millions of dollars just
for appearing in an advertisement. That is a huge amount of money compared to
the typical worker’s wages.

people around the world are using Microsoft applications, particularly
Microsoft Word, Excel and Powerpoint. Because of them, we can express our opinion
and save a lot of data effectively. Thus, programmers will make some helpful
applications. Therefore, they should be paid more than they currently are.

Q) What are the differences between big and
small companies?
A) There are several differences between
small and big companies. First, large companies pay their employees attractive
salaries and benefits. This is possible because larger companies generally have
much more substantial budgets than smaller ones. Second, workers in small
companies have more chances to advance quickly. In big companies, there are
many employees, so it’s hard for them to advance quickly.
Q) Why do some people choose to work at
small companies?
A) I think some people work at small
companies because there are lots of opportunities to expand their skills. In
small companies, there are usually fewer staff members. This causes employees to
take on multiple types of jobs. Also, people who want to advance quickly choose
to work at small companies. As I mentioned, since there are usually fewer staff
members, they have more chances to promotion to be promoted rather than those who work at big
companies.
