Being a surgeon is one of the highest paying jobs and stable ones since as you get older, you are actually valued more (not like some other industries). If you're interested in pay, here is a good resource (it also depends on what specific surgeon you focus on):

Becoming a surgeon is a really long process though with medical school and many many tests. Its a really challenging profession and can be very tiring.
