- Yea. I'm 14, and just got a after-school programming job that pays 7 bucks an
- hour, just because I took the time a couple of years ago to learn pascal.
- Because of that, I now know a lot about Delphi, which is what the company I
- now work for is requiring that I use. I think it's a great product, and has a
- great future. That doesn't mean, however, that you shouldn't learn at least a
- little about something else. For instance, I'm also learning Visual Basic,
- C++, and Java.
