Is there money in web development?

/prog/
I'm currently working on an arts degree and failing hard. None of this shit interests me. I miss at least 25% of my classes. I think I've already dashed my hopes of becoming a teacher (what I want most).

I'm good with PHP, JavaScript and CSS. Can I make a living off that if/when my current plans fall through? My IT education is 100% informal. I have no payed experience.

Just approach small businesses asking if they need a web site.  50 revisions later to make the logo bigger and typeset the body in purple blink Comic Sans and Cha-ching you made 100 bucks (they'll send it by the end of the month). They will call you twice a week to request edits for free because Wordpress is too hard to use to make updates. Next year they will forget to renew their domain name. They will sue. You will not be able to afford a decent lawyer and the judge will throw you in jail for hijacking their web sight with HOT NAKED STRIPPING COEDS. A muscular black man will ask you why you were sent in jail. He will invite you to his friendly gym parties.
