I live in pacific,
OK, I think the offshoring trend may have gone too far . . .
(Hey, it was that or an even lamer "print Namor the sub-Mariner" joke.)

Web page design :). All of the basic languages, HTML and CSS, can be learned easily within a week. That way you could easily hook that in with perl through CGI. Is that what you were trying to say :)? I help run a web site, and I use it as an excuse to thrown in the things I enjoy doing :).

Welcome to the "starving artists society". Many in the "great wealthy west" are in the same boat as you. My advice?
Don't think of Perl as a vehicle to "get rich", it is an "artistic pursuit".
I'm not really a human, but I play one on earth.

The pacific's a pretty big place, can you be more specific?
I used to earn pretty reasonable money programming Perl in New Zealand (live in London now). There's certainly work around, but it's not as available or as well paid as someone who programs in Java.

Nothing, but Java is the industry standard. When a manager thinks about doing a project, her first thought will be "Let's do it in Java"... it's another one of those things that no one ever got fired for choosing.
