I think it touched on a deciding factor - getting hired or going freelance. I've been a freelancer for about 7 months now. I have around 2 years experience in html/css and 8 months experience in php/mysql. I tend to use rentacoder (top 3000 coder on site), and I could earn $400 if I knuckled down, but even that's hard. So many people are looking for slave labor, it's no good working with individuals. You need to work with businesses, people who require native english speakers and see it as the norm to pay $15/h (or more) instead of $8 (or less). This is where getting hired can help. If you live in a developed country, earning $400/wk as a HIRED web developer with a position within a company is no problem.- it;s finding the actual job that's the hard part. Also, a BIG suggestion - forget earning money with experience in html/css ONLY. There's no market. 90% of what I earn is through php, and I only have 8 months experience with that. I guess your success depends on a lot of things, in the mean time, make sure you're working to enjoy life and not just pay the bills. Very good article.
