I think he meant more what an A+ certified tech would make in salary once hired.

It really depends on to many factors to give any kind of answer. Where are you working, and what is the rate in the area? Are you working for yourself? A big box store like CompUSA? A permanent onsite tech for a major company?

Then add in things like how much experience you have, what kind of work you need to do, what kind of hours you work, hourly pay or per job pay, and it is basically impossible to tell. I would say it can range anywhere from minimum wage on op to being well paid.

Oops you are right. I guess I didn't read it very carefully.
