Average Investment Sales Income 1st, 2nd, 3rd Years

I've seen some posts that show current income, but those in investment sales what was your income for the first, second, and third years. I want to see the progression, from what I've heard in:

Years 1-1.5: $0-50k Years 2-3: $50-75k Year 3: $75-150k Year 4: 150-300k Year 5: $500k+

Thoughts and how does it compare to you?
