    Definitely this is a good job for the future - and yes it pays well - if you do your homework!
    From nothing comes nothing - so have a focused input into your future.

    It depends on the kind of marketing you do and generally pay can range. For example, if you are part of the marketing/sales team for large fortune 500 company and you secure a large contract you will probably make a ton of cash and prizes.

    As for internet marketers? I think it varies greatly. Many people have this common misconception that because you are making money online its going to be as easy as playing farmville. They usually find that this is just like any other business and stop taking action--equaling their failure.

    Sales and Marketing is really an interesting job only for those who have interest in this ,Only those people can do and earn good who are extrovert ,creative in Ideas , clever, manipulative (know how to convince some one and how to handle the situations even at worst conditions).Specially those who love challenges as they are the person who are the first key for any business.

    Maketing is the best job these days and even its more scope in the future. Competition is increasing day by day and marketing strategies are really in demand.

    I think internet marketing is on the way up, but regular marketing seems a tough biz to be in. From what I have heard anyway.

    Marketing is trying to promote your product or servicing, think of it as a salesman, and ofcourse salesmen are always required, I would say 99% of the Internet is trying to sell you something, every business on the Internet is trying to market you something
