Left Field

 

[arigato]

Security is definitely one of the areas to look into however if you don't enjoy doing it then all the money in the world won't matter.

 

[JohnCU]

what about an engineer?

 

[bozo1]

Security is the hot field but it's hard to jump into it. Most people in that field have years experience as a network engineer. In my experience, the biggest bucks you can get if you are just getting into the market is database administrators. (with the proper training/cerifications of course)

Have you seen John Travolta's Swordfish? I say movie hacker makes the most... damn he's making like $20 million per flick...

Definately more than the field i'm in...

Gee, I heard from Larry Ellison and Bill Gates that being a CEO of a tech company is pretty profitable!

Seriously, the highest paid tech position is that of "CIO", which usually pays $150,000 or so a year. That job usually takes 10 years experience and a masters degree, though. Good network administrators and top I/T consultants can also grab low six figure salaries, but you're probably going to start out making half that in most locations.

Experience.

After a number of years as a Network Designer/Engineer, you will know the ins and outs of networking so well, that you will know what a hacker will be hacking before he even hacks it.

Not according to my dad He's been with a VERY VERY large company for years and years and has been on the verge of being fired, even though he's smart and good at what he does. He's been trying to find another job doing what he does (network security admin) but hasn't been able to find anything in the area that pays even half of what he makes now.
