When I first graduated college, I got a job at a digital marketing agency.<\/p>\n

At the time, my starting salary was about $5,000 per month (Canadian) when you included commission, which fluctuated pretty significantly.<\/p>\n

Since it was my first job, I was definitely happy with the money. It was the first time I was earning a salary, and working for a commission was always exciting.<\/p>\n

Now, while I didn't exactly realize it at the time (I was still living like a broke student so I didn't spend anything), making $5,000 per month is a very, very decent living.<\/p>\n

In fact, according to Cia.gov, only 18 countries have an average GDP per capita of $60,000 a year<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

This\u00a0doesn't\u00a0<\/em>include Canada or the United States!<\/p>\n

\"Top-gdp-countries\"<\/strong>The bottom line is that $60,000 is a very solid salary<\/strong>, especially if you're just coming out of school and getting started with a career.<\/p>\n

So, it's time to break down 20+ jobs that pay $5,000 per month if you're looking for some inspiration for your job hunt!<\/p>\n

The Best Jobs That Pay 5K A Month<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Since I love breaking down ways to make money online<\/a>, we're going to start with some online jobs that make $5,000 a month. Then, I'm going to cover other $5,000 a month jobs that are in person.<\/p>\n

Now, when I say\u00a0make<\/em>, I'm really talking about the earning potential here, so keep this in mind!<\/p>\n

Selling your skills online<\/a> is very competitive, so unless you land enough work for yourself, reaching a steady $5,000 might be difficult.<\/p>\n

1. Freelance Writer<\/strong><\/h3>\n

I had to start off this list with freelance writing<\/a> because it's now how I make a decent portion of my income.<\/p>\n

In fact, freelance writing is a job that pays $5k a month or more for me. And it's also what let me quit my day job a few years ago to travel the world, making money with my laptop<\/a> as a digital nomad.<\/p>\n

Once you pick a niche and grow your client base, you can definitely work your way up to $28.85 per hour and much,\u00a0much\u00a0<\/em>higher.<\/p>\n

I mean, think about it: if you land a client who pays you $0.10 to $0.15 per word (an intermediate range), a 2,000 word article pays between $200 and $300 – not bad if you can write the thing in a couple of hours<\/strong>.<\/p>\n
