That's a stretch. An average of $150K/year before taxes throughout 20s and 30s is a pretty good job in the US. Say they save $50K/year--which is a lot on that salary--that's $1million saved overall which, depending on your assumptions, will give you about median US household income annually. So possible in a sense if retiring as soon as possible is your goal but certainly not to everyone's tastes.
