"doesnt make sense in their opinions to try and play more than 2 tables at once."

depends on the definition of "make sense". If they mean less profitable, they are wrong. If they mean you will stunt your growth as a poker player, they are right.

I apologize for using acronyms which I assumed would be easy to decipher:

MTT = "M"ulti "T"able "T"ournaments
STT = "S"ingle "T"able "T"ournaments

just think that 5-10 would be the minimum size to play inorder to make 50k a year or more

Not only is $50K doable at $3-6 but $75K is as well! $50K is really a gimme for anyone with serious work ethic.

$75K is realistic if you have the work ethic and discipline foremost to get in hours even when you may not want to play You also need to understand a bit about human psychology by that I mean when you do run poorly you dont jump in bigger games to recoup loses,etc -you will have to be aware of all the traps that gamblers(yes poker isstill gamblin) can fall into and avoid them-for most players they learn this the hard way.

You will also need to play well in short and full $3-6 LHE games with a decent rakeback plan. $50K-$75K easy? matters what your temperment is ..can you put in long hours,do you enjoy the game? For someone who doesnt like to play and can't put in alot of hours this would be more tortuous then easy even if they are a fine player.

Saying it's easy and doing it are 2 different things. For most players it is anything but easy because of the bad runs,the boredom,the isolation etc.
