Fraudsters HATE this one old-timey computer language

Edit: for real tho, can learning COBOL easily translate into some bank or bank-adjacent role even if they don't have a CS degree or whatever?

You're probably better off learning java at this point, its the future equivalent of COBOL for banking.
