the most profitable remote jobs are often the most boring ones and you might not want to hear it but it's the truth and many of these jobs are pretty much always hiring because most people don't even know they exist so let me show you nine remote jobs that might put you to sleep but will definitely wake up your bank account and the best part these positions literally can't hire people fast enough so let's dive in before someone else takes your spot first on the list is going to be a funeral sales specialist and listen I know what you're thinking it sounds very boring and ALS Al pretty morbid but the truth is somebody's got to do it and this job is literally Recession Proof why because well people are always going to be dying right just like they say death and taxes are the only two things that you'll never be able to avoid and in terms of what you'll be doing on a day-to-day basis in this job you'll be selling funeral packages and services remotely and a quick explanation of this job is you'll basically be selling funeral packages and services remotely and typically you will be selling these products and services to a funeral home but you also might be helping families pre-plan arrangements and manage cost cost and the best thing is you can do all of it from the comfort of your home and you can think of it like being a wedding planner but okay no it's it's not like being a wedding planner it's a totally different type of ceremony now base pay here starts at 54,000 and commissions put it up to $86,000 a year annually and typically there's not a lot of people who want to be in this position for obvious reasons it's just a very uncomfortable industry in general to be in although it is a very important industry and so there's not a lot of competition to get into these jobs and in many cases you don't need a college degree or previous experience you just need to be willing to work in the industry and you can make pretty good money right off the bat now I found this fascinating Reddit post from a funeral sales specialist they mentioned making over 120,000 in their first year just by being compassionate and not pushy with families so those numbers that I gave earlier of 50 to 880,000 sometimes you can make a lot more even in your first year now some of the skills needed for this are going to be empathy lots of it you also have to have really tough skin you're going to need to be relatively good at sales but actually it's it's not a very pushy type of sales you know you're not some kind of sketchy used car salesman and you also need to have strong communication skills so the pros of this one are there is high commission potential it's a stable industry and you're going to be in a growing field with aging population the cons are it's emotionally challenging and it can be mentally draining and it requires thick skin but overall I'm going to give this one an opportunity score of 8. 5 out of 10 why because there's massive demand an aging population and most people won't consider this field so you basically have zero competition now if you're finding value in these unique opportunities gently tap that like button because it really helps more people discover these hidden gemms next is going to be a user manual writer and if you've ever wondered who writes those instruction manuals that nobody actually reads well you're in luck because we're about to talk about it and a quick explanation here is you create documentation for products software and services you break down complex information into simple steps and you do it all while working in your pajamas so you can think of it like being a translator between Tech nerds and normal human beings and the salary here even at entry level is about 47 and can go up to $76,000 a year and the skills needed are going to be clear writing ability attention to detail basic technical knowledge and patience lots of it and an anecdote here is one of my subscribers landed this job with zero experience just by taking a technical writing course and building a portfolio and they now make $65,000 a year working about 25 hours a week now some of the pros here are a steady workflow it's quiet independent work and it is an growing field with tech expansion some of the cons are it can be repetitive it does require extreme attention to detail and deadlines can be tight but overall opportunity score I'm going to give it a 7. 5 out of 10 why well high demand in Tech sector and relatively low competition because let's be honest it's like watching paint dry at least for most people

those weird stats that you see everywhere like 9 out of 10 dentists recommend XYZ well someone has to actually verify those numbers and in order to do this you'll need to analyze data for accuracy and validity check research methodologies and make sure companies aren't making false claims so think of it like being a detective but instead of solving crimes you're solving math problems and the salary here starts at 40,000 and can reach up to 64 4,000 annually plus bonuses for project completion now some skills that you need here are strong analytical skills statistical knowledge attention to detail and some basic programming can be helpful and companies are desperate for these roles because one wrong statistic in an ad campaign could cost them millions in lawsuits so the pros of this one are it's perfect for math nerds there's stable work hours and there's pretty much no client interaction the cons here are it can be monotonous it does require constant focus and there is deadline pressure but overall I'm going to give this one an opportunity score of 8 out of 10 why because there's growing demand due to datadriven marketing and strict advertising laws now by the way drop a
