Key Takeaways
Industry Realities
Median salaries:- Realtek Semiconductor: NT$3.27M
- National average: NT$506K
- Top finance firm (Yuanta Financial): NT$1.346M
While outliers like top insurance agents may earn more, liberal arts graduates can still outperform tech salaries with the right strategy—if they embrace calculated risks and non-traditional paths.
3 High-Earning Paths for Liberal Arts Graduates
- Revenue-Linked Roles: Real estate, MLM, tax/financial planning, or stock trading. Requires grit during unpaid learning phases.
- Global Careers: Expat roles or overseas postings—dependent on language skills and adaptability.
- Entrepreneurship or Leadership: Joining rocketship startups (e.g., Binance’s He Yi) or becoming a co-founder. Note: Only 1% of startups survive 5 years.
How to Thrive in Startups
- Avoid companies in the "0→1" (too risky) or "10→100" (limited upside) phases. Target "1→10" growth-stage startups.
- Dedicate 6+ years to mastering investing/entrepreneurship—just as you would academic study.
