Comment Settle for Python (Score 1) 360
Since you wrote, you are used to Perl, the gap between Perl and Python is somewhat smaller than between Perl and Objective C.
And Python fun part is the indentation what makes your code automagically more readable and you have less curly braces.
I would even look for specific Python offerings related to the astonishing Plone (http://plone.org/) which is based on Zope and that is based on Python. In the EU, for example, we are struggling to find Python/Plone developers.
The iOS stuff binds you to one Platform (i.e. Apple's) and makes you vulnerable if that goes down the drain.
If you stick to an open language and settle for an "ordinary" job, you can always find someone else to pay you.
Good luck,
