Well, can you make $50-$100/hour by keeping bees? :P
Every single beekeeping book has a chapter on selling honey, because all beekeepers are flush with it. When you consider that most of the "hours" spent making honey are spent by the bees, I could see making $50-$100/hr (but not necessarily translating that to $100-$200k/year)
You'll never make that much as a hobby beekeeper. The real money is in pollination.
That said, the hours worked calculation for me last year was $650 / 10-15 hours or so.
I take this as a confession of guilt in the enslavement of poor unwitting bees. Nobody told 'em a bunch of humans were gonna steal their booty. And to top it off, they don't get pissed and stop making -- we steal, and they just still keep making more for us to steal... ;)
So, IMO, try bee keeping[1][2] and see if it starts to change your culture :)
