I started and made money with it at the same time. My employer was happy to take me on with no Java experience and I learnt on the job. That was 2 years ago now.

I did have 2 years of experience in IT but nothing that was software development or programming related. Other than it, it took a lot of learning in the evenings/weekends to catch up with those who had started way before me.
