The OP is asking what is realistic and simple no what if or it depends on scenarios.  So to avoid rocket science here is my opinion:

If we are talking all online then I would say if you are playing limit poker (because that is my game) and you play 4-6 tables 4-6 hours a per day (two three hour sessions, one in the am and one in the PM with evening off if you wish) you would be likely be playing at least the $5-$10 games so...
 
Assuming a win rate of 1.5 bb/100 hands (maybe more?) @ 4 tables X 6 hours a day = 24 hours of playing time X 50 hands/hr (I know it can me way more depending on the table) = 1200 hands/day X 5 days a week X 4 weeks a month = 24,000 hands per month = 240 X 1.5 bb (your assumed win rate) = 360 bb X $10.0 (the amount of the big bet) = $3600 month X 12 months = $43,200.00 poker profits.
 
Now to play 4 $5-$10 tables you need, in my opinion $1000 buy-in ($250.00 each table) per session so you would have to have a bank roll of $40000.00 plus I would tack an additional 25% to protect against variance giving you a total of $50,000.00.  
 
I am sure there will be many arguments why you need more or less or the win rate is too big or two small, I am trying to be conservative here.
