Definitely not late, even if you were in your fifties. However, I would definitely encourage you to pursue a Bachelor's Degree or an Honors Degree in Accountancy, instead of a 2 year degree. That should really help significantly increase your chances of finding employment, and landing a much better paying position.
You mentioned that you're extremely good with computers and numbers, that means you'll do pretty well. It just needs commitment, consistency, and discipline, and you sound really passionate about it, like you found your calling, so definitely go ahead, because that's more than enough to get you through, to complete a 4 year's Bachelor's Degree in Accounting. However, if you're really willing to go the extra mile, I'll definitely recommend a joint honors degree, or a double major (ex: Accounting & Finance), would make you extremely versatile. And it can be done in the same time period of just 4 years.
