This is a fun question!
In owning a Martial Arts school, it could be difficult to make money, but you can also make a large sum of money. The amount of students you have directly influences the amount you make. Imagine having 200 students, each paying 1000 dollars a year for their classes. That's 200,000 dollars raw income (obviously deductions for materials, teaching space, insurance, etc.)
And there are definitely schools that have way more students than that. In general, if a master has a large chain of schools, he has a very large income. If the master only has one school though and a couple of students, you won't make that much.
Sure you can make a lot of money, Jackie Chan or Jet Li for example, champion Sumo wrestlers in Japan or perpaps at the highest ranks of the various fighting leagues springing up (although I'm sure the average athlete in these leagues is not particularly well paid). Are you LIKELY to make a lot of money? Of course not, like becoming a singer or an actor or a Basketball player, you better do it because you like it, because the odds are against you getting a big money return for the time you will need to invest.
To be realistic you would have to be a really skilled martial artist to even just make a living doing it.
