This thread has really taken off. Read some and I'll post some examples of people that completely changed trajectories
It is better to be younger, there's no reason you can' t do it later.
You'd be surprised what you might be able to accomplish if the gas is pressed to the floor and the steering wheeled is cranked all the way.
Ben Cagle started monsterads, I studied him and read through his FB (I study people to see how they do things).
Granted these people made massive sacrifices preceding their success.

The 2nd guy owns a network of adult sites and other sites. He used to be a freelance journalist and has pieces in Rolling Stone and several other magazines. Long story short he got a little too much into the partying with all the bands and other groups and lost everything.
I know him through only email correspondence and message board posts but it got so bad that he started performing sexual acts for a fix of drugs, in my opinion that's about as rock bottom as it gets.
I just know he moved back in with his mom and even when he moved out initially he had to get some assistance to pay his rent but he has since gone on to do well. He mentioned that he never left the house (or apt) the first few years.
CCBill is the main biller for most adult sites that don't use NATS or some other system. He had to borrow the $700 for an account.
From his site:
What do these 2 guys have in common? Neither graduated high school through the 2nd guy did get a degree in journalism later in college. When people achieve outlier success they usually open up about mortifying or embarrassing things from the past to some extent.
Both worked 24/7 the first few years or more before they started outsourcing and setting up better systems.
One guy had to start something different at 33 and the other had to start completely over at 40.
That said, don't wait to be any older!
