The pundits are poor at predicting future jobs. When I was a freshman in college I wasn't sure whether I wanted to be an electrical engineer or a journalist.

I was counseled that there would be few opportunities in electrical engineering, four graudates to every job. But in journalism there would be four jobs for every student.

So I chose Journalism and in four years it was exactly the reverse. You have as much chance of these guys being right as knowing what the weather would be like in a month.
