Nothing wrong with that. I think the standard response to your situation would be to take a look at Ruby or Python. And for frameworks, I'd recommend looking at Rails and Merb (ruby land, don't know python options well enough to comment). I'm sure there are other languages you could learn which might boost your pay scale, but the number of jobs requiring Erlang isn't quite as high...
