Age is just a number and it will never define your future’s journey. There are those who came successful at their late age while some have lost their opportunities to succeed when old age comes. So this is a clear manifestation that everything still relies on the individual itself. If he has still the will power and determination to succeed, he will  set a goal for it and never stops until he succeed. But for those who have lost their hope and confidence, it will be too hard for them to succeed simply because they let their emotions rule over their mind. Not unless one is unhealthy and incapable, then success will never be achievable.

I think as we grow old we always have that shift of dreams that we sometime let our past dreams to be just dreams because the dream at present is much more needed and it is something that would make us be satisfied at the present. Age would always be a factor in our dreams since we can have different dreams at different parts of our life. There is no rule regarding dreams in relation to age so as long as we are capable to achieve those dreams, let's continue to achieve it. Just be adaptable to the change of time so that we get the satisfaction and peace of mind from achieving our dreams at the present.

We must always be optimistic to pursue the dreams we have made, age should not be an excuse for making these dreams not happen, as long as we keep trying then these dreams will come true, many people are successful when they are old or are over 60 years old and as long as they are life then we never stop dreaming.
Dreaming is always permissible for everyone who wants to get success, but what you need to know is that realizing every dream is not an easy matter because it is inseparable from the process that everyone must really go through. Well, in this case, the main thing to look at is everyone's level of effort in realizing their dreams, because some people who are successful at old age are those who start realizing their dreams later. So they get it at an age that can be said to be no longer productive.

I don't see anything surprising or "unnatural"! If you are not paralyzed and are not completely incapacitated, there will always be an opportunity to either learn something new, or apply the previously accumulated experience to something. Of course, you should not try to become a povermen at 95, or an astronaut at 100 - there simply physiological limitations will become an obstacle, but intelligence can be used at virtually any age and in any condition!

Yes, of course, this is quite a logical thought in determining the percentage of success in old age by trying new things because the body is no longer as strong and not as fit as when you were young, you also have to pay attention to this, the mindset of age is not a very good reason to grow motivation and enthusiasm, but in this context, look at those who have the abilities they built from a young age and apply them to old age. The likelihood of success will be greater than starting something new at a young age or the consistency of a hobby, such as painting from a young age, which is increasing until old age.
In my opinion intelligence is also built from the many experiences of thinking at a young age and if in old age memory and understanding can be used properly I think that is great but as we know that in old age memory will decrease as well as accompanied by conditions weaker physically.

It depends on the circumstances that you're facing. If there is more urgent than the situation that you're in, then it shouldn't really be pursued anymore if you've changed ways already and accepted that there's another fate that you need to take the path of it. Although nothing stops a person from pursuing his dreams even if the situation isn't favorable anymore and there's no more hope in finding that passion and dream that you've built when you're younger. But the reality today is that the drive for that hunger to chase the dreams you've once thought of is changing and mostly gone.

People's mind set changes as they grow old.  They are more experienced and they know wether they had a chance to make those dream come true or not.  Having the wisdom in old age keeps them from wasting resources in achieving their previous dream that they deemed to know worthless in their present and future situation.  Most of the aged people feels that they had successfully done their responsibility and there is no use pursuing their dreams just to boost their ego.  Obviously, old people will still dream and pursue it if they are capable but due to their wisdom will not pursue dreams that is either a waste of resources or impossible due to their current condition.
That's true, it's just all about setting priorities and giving up their dreams doesn't mean that they gave up. It's just what they think is right to do and time is an issue and that's why it's better to do what's right and necessary than to chase what they are unlikely to chase.
This is the reason why we often some parents are telling that they're passing on their dreams to their children or old folks saying to their grandchildren that they might be the one to achieve their goals and dreams not noticing that they've already achieved goals and even dream of others as well.

No dream is too big and no dreamer is too small
The chance of being successful won't be hindered by age but rather by our lack of motivation to strive higher. We should never lose confidence if we are aging because as long as we are alive, we will always have the chance to reach our dreams.
I want to agree with you, but to agree to this statement is to tell ourselves the partial truth. There are some dreams that are tied to certain age range after which those dreams become no longer achievable mainly because of your age. The sooner you realize this the better for you so you can work harder to achieve that dream while you still can. Imagine someone whose dream is to be a professional footballer of an athlete. If they passes a certain age, they will no longer be eligible to achieve their dream even if they do not let go of the dream.

 Know your dreams and determine if they are tied to time, if they are, work hard to achieve them while you still can, if they are not, then do not put yourself under too much unnecessary pressure.
Well, if those dreams require strength training, then old aged people will never be capable for that knowing their body is not that healthy and strong. But when it comes to business, as long as they have previous experience before and they have high knowledge on the business that is going to manage, achieving success will still be possible. Old aged people only depreciate in exerting force, but never in their wild and creative imagination when it comes to business prosperity.

As we get older, we should be more determined and more motivated to reach success not just for ourselves but also for our children. It is a good thing that we'll leave something for them in the future. Aging is normal but we shouldn't see it as an end point. Let's be inspired by lots of successful people who reached their goals despite their age. We only need strength, motivation and hope to reach more.

CONCLUSION
Don't let age be an obstacle in achieving your dream. It's not to late. Neglect your age and let passion move you towards achieving your desired dreams.

I fully agree with this we shouldn't have any excuses when we are still healthy even though we are old the opportunities and opportunities to achieve success are definitely there, but I think those you mentioned are more mature at their age and from their consistency from when they were young or good character education from young, I think it's more precise when we are consistent with what we are trying to reap satisfying results even though it comes in old age, I think it's more logical than starting to learn new things in old age, I think it's more correct to have a deeper understanding of the field in young age so that they have enough ability in old age and reap success.

I like your argument and that's true, knowing things in a much earlier stage can give you the advantage but it's also true that if you are really keen in aiming success there's always opportunities and always time to learn as long as you are in a good health and you have the capabilities to explore more, age is not a factor if you really love and you wanted to explore for your opportunities.

You have to be precise and determine in finding and learning the right process, and personally, we don't know what the future may bring us.

Age is no reason to stop. Everything depends on your mind and character. You can get rich at 10, and at 90 years old. The main thing - firmly believe in yourself and in your luck. If you doubt, then you yourself are rejecting luck. Forget about the fact that "I can not, it's not for me. You are the creator of your own destiny, and do not give in to despair.

Yes, anything can happen if you are willing to take the risk, age is just a number and like what you said there's also luck that may change the direction of our life, especially if we are dealing with financial success, how you percept the future is how you want the direction to favor you, it will be on your action and not because you are too old.

Age wasn't and won't be a hurdle for people who have ambition, but people differ in their ability to keep up with their dreams, as some people give up easily, while others follow their passion until the end with the full belief that life will smile for them someday. Indeed, the real success happens after a long period of experiments and work. That is why we saw many young people in crypto rise up fast and fall down fast, like SBF, Do Kwon, and many others. I want to add to your list one of the well known stories, which is the story of Harland Sanders, the founder of Kintaki (KFC), who started his success story in his 65 and managed to build a famous worldwide food chain.

Unfortunately the retirement age is going to rise as the aging population live longer and run out of funds because they did not save/invest enough. Hardly any of these workers are "living their dreams," only working so they can afford to live.

The mistake I see people making is they start investing too late. Investing when you're young is crucial because they grow over 30-40 years ensure that you'll at least have something to retire on. It isn't ever too late to invest, I just think people should be cautious about starting too late and not having enough when you cash out.

that's how it should be, don't let age get in the way of the dreams we once intended in our hearts. Especially if we are still young, don't waste that opportunity, because youth is the golden period to start a career. Don't lose to old people, they alone can make good and beautiful works, especially for those of us who are young, we have to be more enthusiastic.
And indeed in life learning is something that must continue to be done, so that we become human beings who are wiser and smarter in responding to all things.
And don't think that learning is only limited to elementary school until graduating from high school, learning must continue, as long as the brain is still given reason, and can still think normally, It would be nice if it continues to be used to continue learning, so that life will continue to be more meaningful.

After we know about life, of course we start to think realistically that it turns out to make dreams come true is a difficult thing, but I'm not disappointed because many of my dreams haven't been realized, I'm grateful that even though there are still many shortcomings I can get things that I think are comfortable.

It is natural that dreams are very dependent on age, when we are teenagers, of course, have a high dream, but when we are adults and find many obstacles then slowly the dream is reduced or maybe disappear and now I am around 30 years old and I just want to make my old Have passive income so it is not difficult anymore.

The dream we have is more or less the way we should live our lives. If we go against what we love and follow a career that bids out time till we are almost out of age range to fulfil what our soul desire, then I see only two if not an option of path to follow.
I believe a dream can be reinvented or improvised on no matter the age. If someone above the age of 32 intends to still play football to professional level, but had to work all the while to Carter for family or loved ones, there's no reason to start from that age to try to fulfil that dream because the muscles are too weak, and it is at that age most footballers retire. Instead, such a one can opt to be a football trainer for younger folks, like a mentor, a coach, ot can even sponsor or own a training club to encourage others to fulfil their related dreams of being a professional footballer.
It is left for us to reinvent despite the age or circumstances.

Truth be told I feel I am running out of time. I have had this feeling since the past couple of weeks. My goals are seeming further away and almost out of reach. I am getting old.
I tried to watch motivational videos but it didn't work. I think this is the most motivational thing I have read today and it has gotten my spirits.
I have read of the KFC man story. Maybe it's not too late for me after all. Maybe I can still achieve my goals even though I am a late bloomer. I must stop being so hard on myself.
