At least here in chicago, its pretty damn rare to see skilled programmers/developers go unemployed for long.
the financial sector is what I am looking into as well; what got me excited is a guy that I know, who runs a small company, developing insurance software

btw, according to the statistics a programmer that works in the financial sector can get paid twice as much as a programmer with the same skills and experience, working elsewhere
