I'm afraid I can't think of anything that does have a future. At least
nothing worth doing (serving hamburgers at McDonalds isn't very exciting).
The software business in general is a waste of time; if you create a useful
product, someone will clone it and give it away as open source (or you could
do that yourself, guaranteeing no return unless you charge robber baron
prices for support). Thus I've stuck with Ada...
