To be fair to the OP, the median (so lower than average) salary for a single person with a bachelor's degree (in USA) is ~$80,000, give or take a few bucks.
The average is likely higher, and then higher again for higher COL areas.
So it's not unreasonable for OP to expect to start at this level, and work their way up to $150k over the next 5-7 years.
