VC payscale

I am trying to figure out what VCs really get paid. My experience has been all in growth capital. I did find one interesting article that has interesting stats:

How much do VCs make(base salary)?

Median Salaries Partners: $200,000 Principle: $165,000 Associates: $125,000

This seems a bit low to me - at least on the principle or partner levels.

Thoughts?
