@BowsacNoodle@poa.st It's easy in IT, but certainly not limited to IT. The coziness of a high paying office job is desirable mostly due to the way the media, and how it portrays all kinds of jobs.

A family member of mine works at a shipyard, he makes way more than me for doing that, but at the cost of having a job that doesn't sound fancy when brought up in conversation. He doesn't care about that, he's doing what he loves doing. And because he's doing what he loves, he's more passionate than his colleagues. This is what allows him to have a better performance, which in turn is worth a lot of money in his employer's mind.

I know someone who makes good money in maintaining the sewer systems. There's plenty of jobs around, and especially dirty jobs can fetch a lot of money.
