What are some different types of Architects and how much do they earn?

I just want a bulleted list of different types of architects, a description of what it is, and about how much they earn monthly. If you cannot find how much they earn monthly, do this:

They earn $________ yearly or weekly or w/e.

Thank you!


Answer:
Snob Architect- Architect that thinks he is above all, and that their design will make the world a better place to live in. Clients are there to serve as ATM machines to fund their master creations. They think they print money.

Mini Snob Architects- Architects who aspire to be Snob Architects but do not have the talent to reach that level. They often put down design of others in order to make themselves feel better about themselves. Make around $100k+/year

Academic Architect- Close relative to the Mini Snob Architect, but their designs don't relate to real world considerations, like gravity. Many of these architects have never step foot into a working office. $60k/year depending on School

Registered Project Architects- Architects who gets dumped on by the Snob Architects and the Owners. To make themselves feel better, they dump on non-registrants and tell everyone how difficult the ARE's are. As low as $45k/year depending on their abilities

Project Managers - Staff who do not care to pursue the ARE's. Usually are the most friendly and helpful. But when challenged with an design issue, their eyes usually glaze over and look at you with a blank stare. $45k+

Foreign Architects- Architects working in the US, but hold a license from a third world country. Will often complain about the US registration process and how the codes are ridiculous as well. They earn as much as a drafter, start at $28k/year

Mercenary Architects- Usually temporary hire. Works only from 8-5 and complain nonstop why people give them a bad look when they leave at 5 during a deadline. Although they may make $60-80/hour, they don't have constant work.

CAD Architects/Job Captains- these are the architects that work only in the office and seldom see daylight. Any necessary contact with consultants will cause them to hide in the cubicle corner in a fetal position. Starts at $26k/year

Intern/recent grad Architect- Full of energy and ideas for the first couple of months. Then soon realize that they actually made more money working at a Bennigans. Make $6/hour if they are even paid.
