Jobs paying 500k a year are very rare. You need to be a top programmer and you need luck.

It is like recommending to be an elite athlete.

Ok. Haha. That was my thought as well.

$500k seems outlandish, not that some aren't making that, but who pays that...

Maybe 1 in every 1,000 dev jobs can even approach $500k.
