What gives away your real skill level is your inability to comprehend English. At no point did I say assembler is useless. But, it will be in 5-10 years. What proves my point? Ray said so. The assembler list is deader than a door nail. Nobody offers it as a training course.
Here’s another fact. I worked in West Virginia. Well, about 30 minutes from WV. And I made more money than “real” Systems Programmers working in most major cities. Even ones who programmed in Assembler! Factoring in the low cost of living here.

It is very easy to destroy this vacuous argument. Let's say you were employed in New York and your colleague (Assembler expert) was employed in West Virginia. In this case, you might even earn more than your colleague, due to regional economics (nothing to do with technical ability). Your logic, or lack thereof, gives away your real skill level.
