Is CS a good choice at 26?

If I really study hard during my CS course, and work hard after it, can I work in something interesting or will FAAG be the best one can work at?
I don't want to start a company, nor do I want to work on the higher end of being a wagie for the rest of my life.

You can always start to learn CS, go for IT job exchange places, you go there, you give them your CV and hope for the best.

Have a githun with like 2-3 "okayish" projects. Easiest to learn is frontend for web developement, good luck

I started my CS degree at 27 as a pizza guy making $7/hr now I am 31 and have $120,000 base salary.

Having the degree is important, but do NOT skimp out on a portfolio or networking. Make shit on the side that looks like something your potential job uses/makes. If possible, get to know people that are also CS majors and work with them on something. Go to job fairs and suck some recruiter dick. Don't fall for the GPA meme.

26 is way too old. You should be done studying by 25 at the latest.
After 25 you're too old for university.
Go work a trade or something, learn to install wires or unclog toilets. That's a better way to spend your time

You most certainly can work at FAANG. The question is what position and where do you climb from that. Scraping the bottom as junior unit test writer sux no matter FAANG or not.
As for advancing your career much more than pure technical skill comes to play and if you are on Any Forums I’m afraid user that your situation won’t be easy.

I'm 12 years old actually, you are in violation of COPPA, do you have any idea, how big the fine would be?

looooooooooooooool

Be careful and choose wisely, a lot of CS jobs aren't as fun or interesting as they make them out to be. Even nice FAGMAN ones.
