12. Taxi Driver

When I tell you that Taxi Drivers make good money, I'm not talking about being Robert Deniro in the movie Taxi Driver. Sorry to break it to you, but that movie likely didn't pay super well. It was the 70s after all. I'm talking about the classic job of taxi driver. It's a profession as old as cars themselves, and even older if you're talking about taxi drivers who used to drive horse and buggies, though would you call them taxi drivers?

Believe it or not, even with competition from ride sharing services and from the foreboding threat of self driving cars, taxi drivers can make six figures. They have to work very hard to make that six figures, but you can't say that for every job. Some jobs simply will never make you six figures no matter how hard you work.

Did You Know...

Over the years, weve seen so many food trends come and go, such as ramen burgers, matcha, and spiked ice-cream. Nowadays, were seeing another trend making waves in the food industry. How many times today have you seen an Instagram photo of a scoop of black ice cream, or a cup of black yogurt, or hamburgers with black buns? Indeed, the charcoal trend has taken the world by storm.

So, what gives your latte that deep black shade? Activated charcoal, or coconut ash, is produced by heating coconut shells to insanely high temperatures until theyre burnt to a crisp. The ashes are then increased in size by steaming at high temperatures. Through this process, the ashes become a strong detoxifier, mostly because they become extra absorbent. This product may be purchased in pill form, and promises to alleviate hangovers, minimize the effects of food poisoning, and fight the visible signs of aging.

Activated charcoal is said to boost ones energy as a result of decreasing toxins in the body. However, no evidence proves that detoxifying can lead to increased energy. Also, while it can help cure a hangover, it doesnt necessarily remove alcohol from your blood. It is also said to aid in debloating your stomach because it cleanses your colon but again, this all anecdotal and isnt supported by scientific evidence as of yet. All we can say for sure is that it is a proven detoxifier.
