That's only in elite circles for certain connected individuals. You can also make that or higher in London in finance sector but you need special credentials (IR35) to get that and it's very hard to get for certain people.

The upper class get certain salaries and everybody else (which includes immigrants and unconnected individuals) get totally different salaries for the exact same work.
