>the problem here is there aren't many opportunities to teach at a prestigious university, at least not at anything resembling a living wage.

I’m not so sure about this. I went to a school that is not very well known outside my state/neighboring states. Even though it was the 2nd largest school in Georgia at the time.

The teacher teaching HTML/CSS in dreamweaver was making $95k. 2 professor getting PhDs in security were making $120k and likely much more after their PhD. The department head was making $150k and the old head was making much more until she got a million dollar grant. This was 6 years ago so they likely make a lot more now.

Professors at prestigious institutions generally make less, not more than less-prestigious ones.

Got it, I reread OPs comment. I believe they meant you could find a job at one but not making a livable wage.
