Answer 1

every job pays different

Answer 2

There's no easy answer for this question. Consider the following:

Mean household income in US was $58,200 in 2001.

"Real median household income in the United States rose by 1.1 percent between 2004 and 2005, reaching $46,326, according to a report released today by the U.S. Census Bureau."

Working 40 hour weeks, 50 weeks a year for minimum wage ($5.15) gives a yearly salary of $10,300.

Obviously a college degree increases the chances of you not working a minimum wage job. You should expect to be at the national median at the peak of your earning potential (unless you have significantly above average business savvy on skills that are in-demand). Therefore your starting salary should be significantly less than your peak earnings, but significantly more than minimum wage. That most likely puts you at the $20,000 -$30,000 range, but this is highly dependent on so many things...
