C++ is always in demand, and pays well, but I was never hard core enough to want to learn that.  I'm pretty smart, but C++ hurts my brain.

It hurts everybody's brain. Out of those who are hardcore enough to want to learn it, some are hardcore enough to learn it, but nobody is hardcore enough to learn all of it. The beginner's biggest challenge is to actively ignore most of the language so that you can learn a subset that is a good match for solving your problem.
