Interesting anecdote, but it's obviously skewed. For example: attorneys, nurses, physicians, and accountants are all missing from the graph. From that I intuit that either a) the data intentionally captures people in only their first job or b) the data is just wildly incomplete.
Conservatively assuming this is intended to be a snapshot of first job salaries, it's interesting to note that a $40k salary is in the top 50% of jobs in the US [1]. And again, we expect most of these people to earn increasingly more as they hit their earning stride (which will be after grad school for many).
