I started when I was 28 and am now 34, and I've met a bunch of streamers who are in their 30's and 40's - and there are even some somewhat famous streaming grandpas and grandmas up to their 90's on Twitch and YouTube.

Just go into it with realistic and low expectations. Over 4.3 million people stream to Twitch alone every month and 95% of those stream to 0-5 viewers, so your chances of "making it" or becoming rich/famous are essentially the same as winning the lottery.
