Thanks, sadly I own all of the mentioned books and supplements, there are also some job templates in space, ultra-tech, fantasy and infinite worlds and some DLCs like urban magics, but most show no income, instead you have to read through the template and search for wealth related ads / disads. No templates, after a quick look, are in magic, thaumaturgy and high-tech. I have to admit, that I feel the 4th Ed, is sorely lacking in this point.
Best thing you can do, if you canīt find a fitting template, to take a look at the 3rd Ed job tables and convert them into 4th Ed. , which of course has some rough edges, and is a bit of work. There are also some fan made job tables mostly for medieval ages, a good deal of them is covered in the 3rd low-tech supplement for the 4th Ed.

Basic pp.516-517 comes closest, and I think it's the best we can have.
It's hard, if not impossible, to make a comprehensive list of payment per job. For example, you can't say a "Physician" earns $X per month because a GP in a rural town will not earn the same as a neurosurgeon in a large city.
