That depends exactly what you're working on and for whom. If you managed to get a job with Netflix or Isilon or Juniper or a similar company that makes heavy usage of FreeBSD, you could expect to be pretty well paid. You would have to be a good developer with an established track-record to land such a job though. On the other hand, you could be a graduate student in Comp. Sci. writing your thesis on some stunning technical work done under FreeBSD. In which case, don't expect to be paid very much at all for that. Commercial jobs in FreeBSD are a specialized field, and tend to be paid accordingly well. The downside is they are a specialized field, so a) you have to be pretty good to make it in this area and b) there is no guarantee there will be jobs readily available when you want one, or even in any location handy for you.
