To get the US $ figure for a rough number multiply by 2

1. Directors and chief executives. Average earnings: £212,910

A director or chief executive’s role varies greatly from company to company but they are the head of the business. In a pubic company, the chief executive or CEO, as they are known in America, will answer to a board of directors.

2. City brokers. Average earnings: £94,293

The City broker is usually portrayed by the media as a scary man screaming and gesticulating manically. They are in fact qualified professionals who buy and sell shares on behalf of investors. To become one, a person is required to pass the Certificate in Securities form the Securities and Investment Institute.

3. Doctors: Average earnings: £81,744

The salary of doctors has been high up the political agenda lately after the Government introduced new contracts that many outside observers regarded as overly generous.

[Lee Gordon]

It has been my observation that in any given business or organization, the more money a person makes relative to the rest of his co-workers, the longer he can be away from the job (sick leave, vacation, personal time, etc.) without anyone having to take over his responsibilities.
If the maintanence man takes off for even one day, it's a crisis if somebody else doesn't jump in and empty the trash cans. If the CEO disappears for six months, no big deal.
