Does anyone know a thread in here, or have an idea about the premises for the statement "you can easily make 50K a year playing 3/6". Does that mean 8-tabling 24/7 or just picking brigth spots when you get off work????

Assuming you can beat 3/6 for 2BB/100. 4 tables gives about 250 hands per hour, which gives 5 BB/hour or $30/hr. If you play 40 hours a week thats $1200/week. If you play 48 weeks per year thats $57k /year. That doesn't include things like bonuses that would stack on top that. I can't do it, but it should easily be possible for a good player.

For live poker, you obviously need to play at higher levels because you get so many fewer hands per hour. However, in my experience the BM players at a given level are far worse than their online equivalent. The $15/$30 game at my local cardroom is the biggest donkfest I have ever seen. Comparable to a $1/$2 Party game. Seriously. You should be able to take $30/hour out of that game, so you make about $50-60k per year there too.
