Answer 1 :
That would depend upon how good they are, but in any case, 50 grand a year is not "top money"
Answer 2 :
The typical salary range for an accountant with 20 or more years of experience is $40,000-$56,000. In other words you may end up making more than $50,000 after 20 years of experience, but even with that experience your more likely to end up making less than $50,000.
Answer 3 :
Those who earn 50-60 grand per year are the one's who have gone to a good school and are working for a large/midtier firm, if not one of the Big 4.
