Not really all that true, for the professions as a whole, except for medical doctors, who are far above any of the others.

Per the BLS Occupational Outlook Handbook [1], 2012 Median salaries for various professions:

Securities, Commodities, and Financial Services Sales Agents: $71,720

Software developers: $93,350

Lawyers: $113,530

Physicians & Surgeons: >$187,200
