Learn systems programming. Learn linux. Learn C. Learn C++. Learn Python. There are better things out there but this is what people use.

Yup my advice to OP is to become a sysadmin for Linux. If you can program you can automate 90% of your job, then sit around browsing /g/ all day while collecting a nice paycheck. It's totally possible to make money through programming without having the word "programmer" in your job title
