Answer 1

This is an old data from year 2003 so it could have changed, but it doesn't seem that wonderful...

Female Licensed:

- 4,629,600yen/yr (around $46,000)

- average age of 35.8

Female Semi-licensed(??? dunno how it works...):

- 4,060,600yen/yr (around $40,000)

- average age of 42.7

Male Licensed:

- 4,845,300yen/yr (around $48,000)

- average age of 36.2

Male Semi-Licensed:

- 4,048,200yen/yr (around $40,000)

- average age of 36.2

Amounts are after tax.  It's surely less than the average income though.
