Actually, the question is not correct.
A good coder,can earn a lot of money,just using his brain and his good ideas.
I had a conversation with some other developers,and i heard some opinions.

So i would like to hear and your opinion too.

Personally,i think Php and generally Web development pays better.



Just choose your choices on Poll and post here your opinion.
(You can vote on more than one choice)

If your choice,does not include on Poll,just post it here and vote "Other Language".

Java has a great market value.
Also C and C++ are great languages.

Its not the language that pays more, its how you use it. Really you make money from coding programs, and successful, strong, secure ones.

@Legolas
if your fluent in php you can do webdesign

if your fluent in java you can make a lot programming

if you a fluent in php, java, java script, and C++ you can make upwards of $150k a year.

Yeah,the question has metaphorical meaning.

Languages cant pay you.

1)Customers
2)Businesses
Pay you.

But the question is: in which language you have the ability to work for big projects,and finally earn ''good'' money?

Of course,there are many factors.

From my knowledge Java (for web based applications) and C++ are the standard for most careers. You would be best to learn one or both of those to land a position where you can work on 'big well funded projects'.

I am occupated with Php and Mysql,
and i make 1200$(arround),
per Site/per e-shop and 300$ per year maintenance.


(1500$-2000$) Per Site but i am not happy with that.

So i would like and your opinions.
I am thinking to "move" to something else.

I am boring the routine of Life.

well I mean if you live in the US and you've got certification you can get a $100k yearly salary job from almost any company or even the government.

If you know java, HTML, PHP, and how to use word and excell you've got a job anywhere.

Try learning networking and how to setup and manage servers then you can do heavy server side work.

@KennyMcCormick ,

Yes,you should have right.
I know C++ , is so powerfull language.
I dont know when i will find so much time.
Life is running and i am in a critical Age.
I am taking my degree from University.(in Computer science)
I have spent a lot of time for other languages too.
I must make a lot sacrifices,like Women,Friends,and Having Fun.
Actually,i dont know what to do.
I want to make a change to my life but i dont know what.
I am a little confused.


@TheBlindHatter ,
yes i know USA pays good,and gives good chances, but the bad thing is that i dont leave there.
So,i must think about that.

C++ is also one of the harder languages to learn, but is well worth it. Just note that when you become a programmer as a career you will spend most of your time reading, fixing and reading more code (other programmers code) and less time writing it. A programmer can write a functional program in as little as a day, the rest of the time.. weeks, months, years are spent improving it, reading over, fixing it, changing it even deleting thousands of lines just to write it over again, because he found a better way to do it.

I've watched a lot of videos and done reading made by programmers, programming becomes you. It is your life, you spend countless hours on your code, sometimes don't leave your computer for over a day at a time. You have to love programming that much, or you won't be happy. Not to discourage you, but that's what you would be in for.
