Do we know what industries they are typically in ? Someone who works in the oilsands in Alberta has a much higher income than me but they're also just waiting for another bust while the government seems to turn further and further away from their industry.

I haven't seen data that granular. Speaking from personal experience (not data, but instructive nonetheless) I know a retired Lear exec, a retired high up at GM, a retired Navy and commercial pilot, a man who used to own a wood milling firm, and a vascular surgeon who all support him. They are all rich and persistently so.
