I'm 57. I've been programming since I was 19 and I'm successful.

Never made pots of money, but it's kept me in comfort. Success for me is having a lovely wife, great kids, roof over our heads, food in our tums, enjoying time together, doing some of those bucket list things, and laughing every single day.

I still love programming and solving problems for people. You won't have heard of anything I've written, but much of it is still in use and (I like to think), makes people's lives a bit easier and hopefully helps them have the same kind of success I enjoy.

We can't all be millionaires, but maybe we can all improve humanity a bit by the things we create.
