It does actually work like that, for me. I'm in my mid thirties and have worked in financial software development for over a decade. Given the day rate I'm earning for Scala development, I will be able to retire comfortably long before Scala goes out of fashion.
Of course, I'll still be coding for fun after I've retired, so I'm looking forward to learning Swift in my spare time, alongside the other languages I code regularly in.
