Most labs I have looked at, worked in, and have asked people about start around $30,000. This pay level is pretty ubiquitous and inflexible because the position is generally funded with Federal grants which dictate acceptable salaries. Unfortunately, this means that you may be offered 30k in Boston... or in the middle of Nebraska. Cost of living is not usually taken into account. I am, however, talking about working at universities and not in private research.
Salary and earning potential are strictly dependent on the type of field you are in, your position within that field, the institution you work for, experience, expertise, personal abilities, critical thinking and problem solving abilities, dedication and commitment toward ones work, and more. In other words, there is no standard salary particular to a bachelor's degree in psychology, or any other type of degree. Thus, salary is not so much dependent on the type of degree as much as it is dependent on the person who holds the degree.

There are many differences between a PsyD and a PhD in psychology. The main difference is the emphasis on research and practice. People with PhDs in psychology do extensive psychological research, while people with a PsyD can do practical work, such as therapy. In general, a PhD in psychology indicates more knowledge in the field. PhD programs for psychology require more funding, while PsyD have less funding. It takes more years to earn a PhD in psychology than earning a PsyD in psychology.
It usually takes anywhere between 5-7 years to earn your PhD in psychology, depending on whether you're full-time, the university's program, and other factors.
