3. Diving for Golf Balls

A lot of you may be reading that and wondering if there has been a mistake. No, I've said it correctly. You can make good money diving for golf balls. There are a lot of very cool benefits to diving for golf balls for a job, including adventure, no need for a degree, good money, and helping the environment, but first you have to understand where this industry even comes from, because it's certainly not a normal job. A golf ball diver makes $100,000 per year diving into the water and grabbing all the lost golf balls that lie on the ocean, lake, or swamp floor.

Every years millions of golf balls are lost to water hazards. It's just a natural part of the game. As much as no one wants to lose the fifty cents or a dollar on a golf ball, they also don't want to chase after their golf balls. They're never going to do that so they just get lost forever. Then they have to go buy more brand new golf balls.
