missing something

Where's the $? I read that MIS majors average starting salary is $45-$50k/year. I have a B.A. and a Master's in MIS, 3.9 GPA in grad school, VP of MIS Society, many skills, and 25 certifications, including A+, Network+, Server+, MCP, and MCITP-Server Admin.

Yet, I can not find a job in IT in Tampa for 8 months. I previously had a tech support job that paid $14/hr.

Where are all the great salaries? What am I doing wrong? I feel I'm missing something...
