Dental hygienists earn an average of $33 an hour.

Are you looking to max out your backyard hammock hours and still make bank when you do have to work?

A new study by the US Bureau of Labor Statistics has a list of part-time jobs that pay nearly triple the $7.25 federal minimum wage.

The best part: Job openings in those occupations are expected to grow faster in the next decade than other occupations, and most of them don't even require a four-year degree.

Using data from the National Compensation Survey, the BLS found 19 part-time jobs that pay more than $20 an hour. To save you some time, we threw out any that required more than a bachelor's degree or that were projected to have fewer jobs by 2024.

As you'll notice, a lot of these jobs are in the healthcare field, which we've highlighted in past articles as a really promising industry as our country continues to age. Plus, it's one of three sectors with tons of open jobs.
