The average plumber, electrician or carpenter (after their relatively short but brutal apprenticeships) easily make more money than 9 out of 10 programmers I know.
Which was why I was surprised to see a recent article about how IT was near the top of the best paying jobs list. I think though that list must have only been taking into account salaried employees.
To be fair though as a programmer, unlike say a carpenter, if one of the logs overflows the risk of being crushed to death by it is considerably less.
