Help! Am I Too Old for This?

[Dr John]

I went back to uni at 52 to learn computing, and grabbed the class prize as top student.
I'm a bit older than that now, and I don't see age as a problem.

Is there a way to bypass years of cussing and hair pulling and still achieve my dream of designing websites for small businesses?

Sure. You get the clients, you design the site in Photoshop or something, then you contract out the work of translating your design into HTML and CSS. Lots of designers do just that.

It is never too late to start a career and even hobby in something else so long as you are physically capable. Earlier I watched a program of a fellow who taught himself how to cook Italian food in his seventies. He never cooked before that time; minus maybe something minor once a blue moon I would imagine. Go for it!

I think my next set of books is going to be from site point. (Now back to Netwarts School of internet Wizardy )
