What is the salary an Astrophysicist gets after the completiion of BSc, MSc & PhD in Astrophysics?

in general i wanna ask what is the salary of an Astrophysicist working as a researcher in Astrophysics?|||It is difficult to be too precise, but the median pay in USA for an astronomer with a PhD is around $100,000 per year. The lower grades are paid about $40,000 to $50,000 per year. This may sound a lot to a guy on a production line, but a PhD takes an average of 12 years to obtain, so spread out over a period, the salary is not too hot. None of us go into astronomy for the money, we could earn far more in industry. We do it for the love of the job,and I wouldn't change it for a million dollars a year! One word of caution though, jobs are few and far between, and an element of luck is also needed if you are to find a job on graduation.|||He/She'd be happy if they don't have to move back in their mothers basement and start working for Best Buy geek squad. Degrees don't mean anything these days.Hell, everyone has one. You can get a GED then study online to be an astronaut and once you pass the written test its on to the pilots test before you know it you're the guinea pig for the Challenger 14!
