Santa Claus rakes in some decent dough this time of year...

Dealing with runny noses, dirty diapers and unreasonable request deserves some compensation...

How does ten to twenty thousand for one month sound? Susan Mesco, president of American Events and Promotions, says that’s what a super-savvy seasonal Santa can sack working private or high-profile events. Santa generally makes about $20 or $30 an hour at the mall. Here are some other profitable options for some seasonal pay:

• Elf: Santa’s helpers are seasonal musts. They keep the lines moving, customers happy, take pictures and take home about $25 an hour at private events.

• Gift wrappers: The average hourly wrapping wage is $10.63.

• Seasonal Delivery: Driving and unloading trucks and handling paperwork is worth about $15 an hour.

• Snow removal: Highway maintenance workers make over $17 an hour. A 12 year old with a shovel - $10 to $25 per driveway.
