I'm starting a large web application. The site will have a payment system, video system, profiles and messaging systems and more. I estimate 50k users in a year.
My budget is under 50k for everything.

Which programming language would be the best bet? (Back-end, front-end will be in HTML/CSS/JQuery)
It's 50k US..

I won't be programming it myself.
It's not the developers concern, it's mine since I will own the site. If a developer wants to code it in php then I have to make sure that's what I want.
Money and time is not a problem, I want something scalable and quick.
 
You better look at LAMP (or WAMP) -- Linux( win) / php / apache / mySQL -- and then you can stay in the javascript level for your pages. JQuery probably needs Struts or similar framework. It takes a lot of effort to visualize a database-driven web page and really think PHP gets you there faster. See the wiki on LAMP php
