You seem to post a lot of these kinds of questions. Have you ever considered meeting with a recruiter/headhunter and finding a career path for yourself?

Web design/web development are both careers that you can make a lot of money in as a freelancer, but you will need the talent as well as the right connections. It's an easier field to get into as you said yourself you just need to take a 20 week program, BUT you will always need to keep studying and upgrading your skills as there are constantly advancements in the field. You will also probably need to learn a ton of other skills like UX, graphic design, etc. if you want to start your own web design business. If you can market your services right, work with the right clients and create beautiful webpages for them that have great UX, then go for it, all power to you. But don't get into the field just because you think that it can be a good career, that's not the right mindset to get into any career. I think I've told you this before, figure out what exactly you like to do and try your best to build a career around it. Don't just google what a job will pay and decide to do it because you will for sure fail that way.

Best of luck.
