My dad's a professor. He makes a little over $1 million a year ($400k base plus $1000 an hour consulting). It is by no means common to make that as a professor. It's incredibly rare. Most professors barely hit six figures and senior professors may make it up to $150,000/year.
He would never recommend that my brother and I become professors just because he makes a million a year. In fact he actively warned us against doing so.
It's the same story with CPAs. To suggest someone go to grad school and then cite some CFO/CPA that makes $2 million a year as an example is deceptive.

It really isn't that atypical. I know half a dozen CPAs who make at least 300K per year each. And both of my parents were full professors and made 150K per year, plus, each 30 years ago.
