Are you building your future? I'm 41, and there are probably other users here who're older than me how-ever I was told when I was 16 that ftp/smtp/csv/https/oracle/database are legacy technologies but every day its my bread a butter. Technologies will come and go but your time is more important than trying to build for the future.
Just recently one of our security experts dropped dead over the weekend. When everyone heard about it they were sad for about 5 minutes, then 5 minutes later everyone was talking about their kids, parents, family, vacations or what they're going to have for lunch.
I don't mean that to be condescending, your life is important to you. Build your future, technology will take care of itself.
