Comptroller General
Okay, quick: Name the last three Comptroller Generals of the U.S.
‘Nuf said. Like…who goes to bed as a kid dreaming of “winning” this job? Well, turns out that this gig has a 15-year term to it, and it pays $168,000. That represents a total of more than $2.5 million over 15 years. So, if you answered “a lucky kid” to that question, we like your out-of-the-box thinking.
In the U.S., the Comptroller General is the head of the Governmental Accounting Office. This role is comparable to being the CFO of America, and his job was created back in 1921.
