Hey Ronaldo,
You know, salaries can really differ depending on where you're located - it could vary by state, county, or even country. Let me share my own experience with you. I spent a good chunk of my life living on the east coast, working as a research tech for a maximum salary of $36,000. Then, my boss at the time asked me to relocate to Cincinnati with him, and guess what? My salary jumped to $63,000!
I wasn't aware at the time, but there was a trend of people in Cincinnati leaving research jobs to move into the industry sector, which generally pays more. They were stepping away from academic research. The research director at my Cincinnati workplace believed this was mainly due to the salary difference. So, the company decided to significantly boost their salaries in an attempt to keep their staff. But interestingly, people were still leaving. It turned out it wasn't just about the money, but also the way they were treated by some of their bosses. This is something that can happen anywhere, isn't it?
Now, while my salary increased with the move, my wife, who is a nurse, experienced a decrease in her pay. So, it really shows that your pay can be influenced by a number of factors - who you're working for, where you're living, and even what degrees you hold, whether in business, science, arts, and so on.
Luckily, I found a great person to work for, and things are going well for me. I'm doing the work I love, and my boss treats me well and values my contributions. So, remember, finding the right employer can make a world of difference.

Similar to Sue, I recommend researching data gathered by the government or by companies. US Bureau of Labor Statistics is certainly a good first step. There may be something similar from the State of Michigan.
If you're looking for a particular company or job field, you could do some research at Glassdoor: https://www.glassdoor.com/Salaries/index.htm

Ronldo you are asking a very broad question. It is difficult to say how much a person might make in a particular position without know the position you are considering. You can research the US Bureau of Labor Statistics and they provide an estimate of salaries (National, state and metropolitan), the anticipate growth, pay and benefits, and much more. The website is: https://www.bls.gov/bls/blswage.htm
Good luck in your research.
