This is absolutely true. I could leave for industry tomorrow and likely double my salary. The money I've personally earned from grants is... $0. And I've been very successful in getting grants. I only got a job offer at one university where the PI of a grant directly got a monetary benefit from it, and while it was nice, it was never going to be more than "That's a nice little bonus" money. If you want to make money as a scientist in academia, consulting or a startup is where it's at.
