Dunno man. Anecdotally, there are geniuses and there are the devs that copy pasta from the internet without an inkling of what the code segment is doing. The later group is mostly at risk, but the former group has nothing to worry about. Maybe don't chase careers based on payout alone?

You don't think there are devs (and clerks) who are neither?
