Plumbing used to be great in the UK £50-60K was possible. Then Europe opened up and Eastern Europeans started cutting into the wages considerably, it still pays better than the median wage, just a lot less than before.

Symbian is not doing better though
We all went "Wow!", "Cool!", "Can I see it?"
