I plan on making money off programming... So any advice on which language to learn that has money in it?

I'm looking for a language that isn't the hardest thing in the world to learn or use, and can help rake in a nice ammount of money cause it's widely wanted.. like on a freelance site like www.rentacoder.com, they have lots of projects on there, any suggestions on what to learn so that I can start making money?

There's ver few jobs in this town...

C# is easy to learn and has a high potential for employment. If you don't mind putting in the extra effort, use C++.

Alright... C++ seems to be the langauge that I'm gonna love enough that I'm gonna want it to have my children.
Thanks, uman.

C++ / C# / Java / PHP are the money makers right now.
