‘I have 5 managers all making over $100k who all have the same job title’: Top 20+ useless but high-paying jobs

Now, what does one have to do to be considered for one of these positions? As much as we all enjoy criticizing folks who get paid a fortune to do next to nothing, it wouldn't hurt to get a taste of how the other half lives, would it?

There were a few industries in this list that came up multiple times, so clearly, more than one individual feels the same way about people who work in finance, consulting, or corporate middle management. Someone in the comments section phrased it in the best way when they said that if your job is to essentially track the progress of the folks below you and report it to one person directly above you, then your job probably shouldn't exist. No one's naming names here, but we all have worked with folks whose responsibilities exemplified that exact description.

Keep scrolling below for this collection of high-paying useless jobs, and who knows? Maybe we'll all be lucky enough to have one of these jobs one day. For more compilations like this, here is a list of poorly spelled job postings!
