To find jobs that allow you to work less but still get paid well, we analyzed US census data for about 478 occupations distilled by the Minnesota Population Center's 2013 American Community Survey Integrated Public Use Microdata Series.
According to this data, the average working American logs about 39 hours a week, and the median earned income - a sum of wage, salary, and business income - across all occupations is $32,000.
