Java(j2ee) is well paid and pretty safe for the next 10-20 years. Java will be the next mainframes. Even if you look at this thread, not many people want to do it, but there are hundreds of thousands java applications that need maintanance and updates and more are starting every year. And good java folks are in a very high demand. But the irony is noone wants a pure java dev. It is implied you need to be good at html/css/js, have handson exp with at least 2 popular databases, different web/app servers, numerous frameworks and also very good admin skills. Not the shortest path to success.
