I am 18. All I want is to become web developer. And to make a living from it. My parents want to me on college next year. I had a job almost all the time since I was 15. Working in PC service, or working with flyers on the street. I get almost no money, but its ok.

My parents are always saying " Look, you earned 0 from your programming carrier, and from PC service you earned at least something. Better start practicing math for your college".

I started learning ruby now, since my future with PHP is not very bright as you can see. I hope I will be able to make a app that will give me at least some cash so I can start believing in my web development carrier.

First of all, it's spelled career not carrier.

PHP vs Ruby is not going to make a big difference. What matters is how you good you are.

Listen to your parents and go to college. If you love working with computers so much, a Computer Science degree will be fun. There's a lot more stuff to learn in CS than merely becoming an expert RubyonRails programmer. Do your web development stuff while you're studying and if you do become the next Zuckerberg, drop out then!
