The article is too vague and broad I think. You have to understand what the specifics are before you talk in general terms drone pilot = 100k. The same is true in information technology. There are systems administrators that make 50k there are also systems admins that make 120k. It depends on skillset and actually what you are doing.
It will be interesting to see what happens the next few years with the FAA and everything else.
