A Mangaka doesn't get paid salary. They get paid for whatever they sold.
The average Mangaka works roughly 8-10 hours a day. Generally they have to give in 20-40 pages of manga a month so it's one compleated page every day (not including the time it takes to write the story). If the editor doesn't like it the Mangaka has to re-do it. Also the extra art like cover art or graphic books.
You don't get an hourly rate but a contract based partially on sales, the average contract is usually for a beginner 500$ per 20 pg's.
Assuming it takes 5 hours per page about 5$ per hour.
If the Managaka's just starting then they're looking at self publishing which is Doujinshi. In that case they make what they sell after paying their own printing fee.
They have to then calculate their costs; time to make the comic, materials used, paying assistances, ect. ect. ect.
In the end the profit is compleatly dependent on the Mangaka.

People under 18 can become a mangaka if they had some editing help and stuff?
I doubt it. The only way a person under 18 would be able to make a manga was if they were practicially rich and yes, they would need lots of editing help. Mangaka usually have to have a lot of supplies and tools. Under-18 people wouldn't be able to afford that, so yes/no maybe.

Should you feel discouraged about becoming a manga-ka?
It honestly depends. If you've strived for being a mangaka all your life, you should check everything out first. Like wages as such. If you REALLY want to become a mangaka you should think of a story ASAP. If you've read/watched Bauman, you'll know that luck is a big part of becoming a mangaka. You never know, your manga may become one of the biggest. But, back to the point. It's 200% fine if you feel discouragred to be a mangaka. When I was younger and I found out how tough it was, it did put me off a bit. It's a tough life out there for mangaka's. Hope this helped.
