IMO it's hard to become a programmer that earns a lot of money if you hate math/problemsolving

same applies to lots of fields though. don't go into medicine unless you love it. don't go into finance unless you love it. and so on

otherwise you'll be like me -- making a decent salary, but not liking what you do. I'm a coder at heart but my education is all finance-heavy, so I'm pretty much pigeonholed. couldn't get past the HR at google
