About 5M people in the US make over $300k per year. That includes doctors, lawyers, entertainers, etc. Can a CPA make over $300k, yes. Is it likely, no. However being a CPA provides a very good life and if your SO works combined you can make over $300k HHI pretty easily.

15years into the field, sr manager I know makes 150k. Head of the department cleared 200k And probably 20 years under the belt. 300k is doable only if you are sr director And above at a public company or if you make partner in PA
