You get significantly more money - some exploits are worth $100-250k. You just need to ask in underground hacker forums and not on Twitter. But doing business with those guys is hard af because no one can trust each other.
A popular trade-off is to work for a government contractor. You can get that kind of money as a salary, and the trust issues are all taken care of. Having a real salary is helpful if you want to get a loan to buy a house. It evens out your finances.
Somebody like SandboxEscaper would qualify technically, but I have a feeling that running off randomly to foreign countries and hinting at a possible suicide would be disqualifying. The government frowns on that sort of stuff when sorting out trust issues.
