The short answer is, you will always need to keep learning new things.
Whatever set of technologies are popular today (check out
http://www.tiobe.com/index.php/content/paperinfo/tpci/index.html, for
example), will change over time.
When I started out, I knew C and Fortran. I'm amazed that C is still the
#2 language, and Fortran isn't even on the TIOBE top 20 list any more. 17
of the 20 didn't even exist when I started out.
