00:00To begin, Ethan Hunt works at the Impossible Mission Task Force, or the IMF.
00:04Throughout the seven films, it's never explicitly stated what the compensation for working at
00:08this clandestine organization would net its employees, however, if we look at comparable
00:13real-life intelligence agencies, we can at least get a starting point.
00:16Within the CIA is a division known as the Special Activities Center, or SAC.
00:21These guys are responsible for covert operations and paramilitary activities, so they probably
00:26did really cool stuff like the Bay of Pigs.
00:28In the Mission Impossible movies, almost all of the adventures of Ethan and his team
00:32could be considered covert operations.
00:34If you look up jobs on the CIA's website, you see that the starting salary for someone
00:38working in SAC to be around $73k, is that right?
00:43That seems kinda low, you have to risk your life and never see your kids to do this job.
00:50In the description, it says, you will take on demanding responsibility, accept significant
00:54personal risk, and maintain accountability for results.
00:57Yikes.
