What is the Highest paying military jobs?

Military pay (Basic Pay) is determined by rank and longevity of service, not by actual job. The highest paying military "jobs" are the highest ranking military officers; admirals for the Navy and Coast Guard and generals for the rest. Some "jobs" within the military may have special pays associated with them due to the technical requirements or dangers associated with a particular job. These special pays are, however, limited in the amount they pay. Special pays range from as little as $75 per month to a high of no more than $400 per month (may be old data as I have been retired from the military for about 8-9 years).

It is a bit hard to say specifically. The normal retirement pay is based on salary at end of service, which in turn is based on rank and years of service. It will be between 50% and 75% of the base salary. At 20 years (Generals are going to have more than 20 years, it is very unusual to achieve star rank in less than 20 years) you get 50%. You get an additional 2.5% for each additional year after 20 to a maximum of 75%. Based on the 2010 pay charts it would be between $75,516 and $79,314. That does not include full medical benefits and access to military exchanges.
