"The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) expects that jobs for financial analysts will grow by 12% between 2014 and 2024. In 2015, the BLS reported that financial analysts earned a median yearly income of $80,310. Income may vary from year to year because financial research analysts receive bonus pay tied to the accuracy of their forecasts in addition to a base salary. Successful financial research analysts receive bonuses that are significant portions of their total income."
