A list of Toronto's top-paying jobs has just been released, and some of them will pay you over $100,000. 

The list was made using Indeed's salary reporting tool and takes into account median wages adjusted to reflect yearly salaries.

Without further ado, these are Toronto's top paying jobs at the moment:

  1. Psychotherapist - $124,800.00
  2. Software architect - $124,005.50
  3. Developer - $114,400.00
  4. Programmer - $104,000.00
  5. Physiotherapist - $93,600.00
  6. Social worker - $86,476.00
  7. Lawyer - $86,250.00
  8. Registered nurse - ICU $84,032.00
  9. Dental hygienist - $81,120.00
  10. Plumber - $72,800.00

While many of these positions require a certain amount of education and experience, not all of them require you to go to university.

You don't need a university degree to work as a plumber, and social worker and dental hygienist positions can be achieved through shorter certificate programs.

If you're looking for a career change, a ton of Ontario universities are offering courses for free at the moment.
