ok that totally depends on the years you've put in and also the kind of clients you're handling when it comes to accountants. But i tell you both r very highly paid jobs. My sisters husband is a programmer who handles other programmers. 15yrs on the job now n hes earning 6 figures. Wonder why i never had the brains to become either!!

yes but in the programming world, doesn't 6 figures put you in peril of losing your job?

well the issue w/ engineering/CS these days is that a worker who's been on the job for 15~20 years isn't necessarily more productive than a fresh grad from college. Thus employers tend to fire the older workers for the newer ones so they don't have to pay as much for similar service.

and for some reason, i haven't heard as much about this from the accounting world...

well..m thinking some jobs pays well with the yrs of experience you've put in, which a rookie would not have. Too many types of programmers and too many types of jobs :)
