Compared with todays models and selling it to sponsors who think it should be cheaper it's not such a bad gig.

I've shot a few since and have an excellent rig for doing them today.
A high end guy with good accounts can rake it in this way: just think of it as an exclusive content shoot and you will see that exceeding your current day rate may be quite easy, even in this economy.

Some of these guys posting about it being so bad must be single or hired a weekend hack to shoot content.

Exactly. A decent wedding is Saturday or Sunday only. So the good shooters can pick and choose who they shoot for. The market swings between hacks who shoot at the weekend and rely on an ad on something like Craigs list. And the top end who don't have to advertise.
