As a comparison, a NetJets PIC in year 5 on 7/7 schedule is minimum $250k, but could push $300k no problem with extra days or living in a busy base and not having to airline day 1/7. I’ll openly admit that a legacy would have better work rules and compensation. Obviously not everyone here wants to work at a legacy though, as the attrition that isn’t age out, isn’t astronomical.
I'm not trying to dump on Netjets or say it isn't a good place to work - just responding to: "Where elst can you go from instructing at a part 61 school and 3 years later being a Captain in the Phenom makin good 6 figures under age 30."

And the answer is, just about anywhere.
