Is it all relative though in terms of the # of students I would have to instruct at an FBO making that kind of money? Whereas, at an academy, I'm almost sure that a guaranteed base salary is offered with some perks? Or maybe even making $14-$15/hr with a prescribe number of trainees assigned to me?

What's your take on that? Just trying to weigh the pro and cons because I will be starting my flight training hopefully later this year. When I go to my financial resource, I'm sure these questions will come up again.
