The worst programming language ever

My neighbour who is a programmer is still working in banking and insurance companies in Germany because they still have big computers working with COBOL. He moves next to pension.
He earns approx 100k Eur per year. So, working with the bad can be good

(I never has done COBOL)

And: I recommend people should start to learn COBOL because these companies are probably ready to pay a high amount of money to young programmers doing that (for few more years. how long? dont know. probably till when the banks will invest huge amount of money for migrating the customer database from mainframe computers working with COBOL into modern less sure systems..).
