I don’t agree with this. Once it starts to click a bit, if you enjoy it, it’s not hard to make progress. Build things that excite you and keep at it. Don’t just study for the sake of studying - create things you want to use. Take the leap before you think you’re ready (waiting was my mistake) and apply for things that might be challenging or you feel you’re under qualified for.

Sure, but there are three steps:

1) join the SWE "club"

2) make progress

3) get 6 figures pay

I don't think that they can be "easily" reached, particularly the third one will likely be difficult/stressful/etc.
