The major hourly rates are out there.
If a wb A pays $370/hr....multiply by 75 hrs x 12 and you have the top direct earning amount.
Add another 5-30% based on things like 401k and profit sharing additives.
Amounts above that are gonna be situationally dependant.

You are right. 
the numbers the op gave were i think biased to a best case in todays unprecedented opportunities.
Anyone who has been acquainted with this industry should appreciate how fast it can go from great...to unemployed.
Career averages are likely to be much closer to the monthly hrs x rate number than not.

If you're a senior widebody captain, picking up one premium trip a month can mean 15k extra, every month. Add that to your min guarantee and suddenly you are making 500-700k, and working maybe 12 days a month.
Hardly "ZERO" life outside of work.
