Let me try to settle this dispute once for all

Laotu has been a persistent advocate of IT career, over which a few guys have strongly disagreed.

此IT非彼IT也。The terminology is confusing over the topic.

It\'s true that *in general*, IT is not a field friendly to aged workers. The pay is OK. But it\'s hard to get decent salary.

When Laotu says IT, he implicitly meant data analysis and management. That tiny niche, IMO, indeed has all the advantages he mentioned. It indeed is a 福音 for 育齡婦女 ~~. However, if you are so ambitious that you want to make >150K/year while leaving enough leisure time for yourself to enjoy life, this IT is not a good choice.
