What are my chances to find a job after learning PHP/MySQL for 6 months?

I am 47 and I only know some html. Planning to change career and learning PHP/MySQL for about 6 months. What are my chance to get a job after that? Is PHP/MySQL the right technology? I was trying to do some ASP.NET but I was told it will take me much longer than 6 months.

One *very* important thing you didn't add in was *where you are* - the market for PHP jockeys will be a lot different in Boston and rural Idaho.....
Reply:Shouldn't be a problem... Wal*Mart is always hiring people greeters.
Reply:PHP/MySQL isn't much, I've learned it in a month and I'm only 13. The maximum I've seen for a PHP/MySQL coder go for is $12/hr. If I was you I would learn VB6 and start programming real programs.
