    I’ve heard 2nd stories of the few old-timers who still know COBAL, FORTRAN, etc who have very generous salaries working in sectors like banking. It’s probably too late now though.

      Isn’t too late. Work in a very large bank. Some of the COBOL underpinnings will probably never die. The same cannot be said for their maintainers.
