$65,000 and over. The drawback is that your job will most likely not directly be related to anthropology. Some university and museum positions don't apply to this though.

The U.S.government hires a lot of people who specialize in anthropology, but mostly for intelligence reasons or environmental concerns. The Air Force hires a lot of anthropologist as well, but only if you have your PHd.

It is a trade off not everyone is willing to make.
