Is 30 too old to work as a developer.?

Just need some opinions. I'm almost 30 yrs old. I gordered my hands dirty in web design when I was 24 and doing my own small little projects on and off since then. I have been learning more Javascript and android development here on tree house and relived i love all this and want to do this forever and would like to find work in this field.

So my question is do you think this is a young Pearson game or is 30 still ok to develop for now and beyond?

I heard 30 years is not to old you still got 30 or so years to go and I'll say that's a long time...
