How many BB's is a good amount to win? and what I mean by that is what should a winning poker players daily BB income be on average?

Please answer for one tabling and multi tabling.

Obviously your winrate will decrease with an increase in tables. I would say lots of good cash game regs can 4-6 table very easily. If you can win 5bbs per 100 hands that is very good. 20 is crushing it.

It also depends on the stakes. In micro stakes I thing 5-10bb/hr is good but the variance is usually much higher due the number of fish. As you get into the mid stakes 5bb/hr is very good but variance is less. Also, you have to take in account that higher stakes and lower bb/hr win may mean more profit. So if you make 10bb/hr at .10NL you are making less than you would at a tougher $1NL game at 3bb/hr.

depends what stakes. multi tabling 100nl zoom, a good win rate is like 3 or 4 bbs/100. obv if u 1 table ur win rate would b higher. at 25nl and below multitablers should prob look for a 5-8bb/100 and a 1 tabler should look for 10+

TBH, at meaningful stakes, anything that's positive is doing OK.

if your one tabling tbh its unlikely you will play enough hands to have a true winrate. Games are changing all the time and samples below 1 million hands dont mean too much.

A sample does not need to be anywhere near one million hands to be statistically significant. 100K hands is plenty to allow you to assess your play, and samples as small as 25K hands produce reasonable proxies for long-term win rates for certain types of players (mostly TAGs).
