I agree with all of the people that because of the economy most CCIE's won't see big salaries from few years back. I also agree that "paper" CCIE doesn't really compare to a "paper" MCSE, SCSA or whatever else. A CCIE needs to have some hands-on. The problem is that lab testing has little to do with real life environment. On top of that, there is so much info out there on what's being tested on the lab that people have much work cut down for them to pass the tests. This creates a limit of what you really need to know for the lab and how you get to that level, this limit however is not how a CCIE will be judged in real life environment. So, yes the salaries are gone, and yes there are some CCIE's who will have trouble designing a "simple" network. I think as long as people don't cheat themselves they will know whether they are worthy of this certification. You need to take a look at yourself and forget about the little paper you put on the wall or on your cubicle. The paper means nothing, it's what's in you what really counts. And as far as that goes you can still make a great living being a CCIE !
