A carreer as a mercenary can be a very rewarding one as they can make up to several times as much as the American forces in Iraq do. The lowest rank in the U.S. military serving in Iraq makes $15 830 per year ( I believe, It may be a bit more) and most mercenaries in Iraq make between $150 000- $250 000 per year. Some of these mercenaries are hired by private corporations to guard there interests such as oil companies hiring them to guard oil refinries but mercenaries are also hired by governments as well.
