Subject :  Re: Actual Audiologists Salary and Income

Mean salary: $62k

Audiology mean salary: $62k vs. Optometry mean salary: $98k
http://www.usnews.com/usnews/biztech/best_careers_2007/careertable.htm

Go to www.salary.com and type in Audiologist and your zip code and see what the average salary is for an audiologist in your area.

And America Hears may have provided that gentleman a "free" programming or whatever, but that audiologist is being employeed by a larger company. What would you say if the audiologists at America Hears $150k for never even seeing the person? In actuality they have a pretty sweet gig- they don't have to see anyone, they don't have to do the testing, they don't actually sell the aids and they get paid.

Seriously why does it matter what audiologists get paid? Actors get paid 20 million dollars per film (3 months of work)- does it seem fair that they get that much for doing their jobs? It is all relative.
