Well said. If you're well-regarded in your niche, you'll always find work in it. The problems are: 1. You can get bored with it, or sick of the clients. 2.

Fortunately, I've always found that in high tech, you can acquire skill in some new area fast enough to get hired in it, without having spent your whole life doing it. If they really want the person who's spent their whole life in it, they'll pick that person, but usually there aren't enough of those to go around.
