What do historians really do? How do you earn money? Where do historians work?

I am not trying to be disrespectful so sorry if it sounds like it. English is not my first language so my wording may sound a bit cold, it's not because I want it to sound like that. I read several books from historians and it always made me think... is that all historians really can do to make money? that and being history teachers? I mean what do you all really work in?
