C++ or Java?

Which programming language has the most return on investment? Impact on real world systems, and is more rewarding? I have minimal programming experience and working on AS in CS.

I was expecting criticism for saying this, and I had my defense ready: I’ve worked at a lot of software companies, and the programmers always made less than their managers. But I got no criticism. I guess it’s non-controversial.
