It depends on what you are trying to accomplish to decide if PHP is even the right type of language to use..

And if you are looking for a future in web development to keep up with times, PHP is a web developers' basic 'must' in their toolbox usually, but then it definitely helps to have some other trendy/commercial languages under your belt too.

Thats why, Right now (at least), I think the way to go would be to familiarize yourself with ASP.Net/C# and RoR/Ruby, then there is JSP/Java as well, all great combinations if you're interested in $$$$
