I ask myself that question every day.

I am 50. I have been posting here for a decade.

Lead programmer at my work started when he was 30 so I'm gonna say no.

Put in some work, stop browsing Sup Forums, you'll be there in no time.

No. Software development is easy as fuck. It's basically paint by numbers and legos. Gluing shit together. Especially in an employment environment, you'll have your hand held with what you should do.

nah

No. But your success depends on who you are and what you did so far. There are many roles in software that one could take that doesn't require years of mastery. In a small company, I would think that a friendly guy who knows all kind of Excel formulas could have a lot more value than someone who spent half his life working on very deep and specific domains.
