Its very competitive. Most of the work/money is in audio engineering for advertising, you can get a steady 100-200k a year job as a successful sound engineer in a top sound house in London. Top engineers who also compose can do really well as they get the wage from the sound house + paid by the hour to compose music + royalties for music that gets play.

It does become a real 'job' though, you spend most of your time making the smallest of amends and same shit again and again, and very little time doing stuff you really want to be doing.

Personally I would never have the patience for it and it would put me off producing in my free time.
