Why can't you make money from GPL stuff?
I'm currently bidding to create a small and cheap website - i.e. I'll code
it in the evenings - using PHP and MySQL and part of my bid is that the code
I write will be GPL code. This gives the client confidence that if they
don't like me they can get changes done by someone else.
I'm sure that they will come back to me for changes as I will know the code
and they will like what I write.

Most of the time, you probably can't. And who cares. Next.
