Rick Beato Proves It's Never Too Late to Follow Your Dreams

Rick Beato, a YouTube sensation with over 4 million subscribers, is a living testament to the idea that it's never too late to pursue one's dreams. In a recent video, Beato debunks the myth that you must achieve everything by age 30. "If you don't do something by age 30, you'll never be able to do it for the rest of your life, because that's when you're able to really learn," Beato states, only to then dismantle this notion with his own life story.

At 35, Rick Beato started his first band. By 36, they were signed, and by 37, they were dropped. Yet, his journey was far from over. At 41, he produced his first platinum record. And at 54, he started his YouTube channel, which now boasts millions of followers. His Instagram has also garnered over a million followers, proving that social media success knows no age limits.

The impact of Beato's video resonated deeply with viewers. One commenter shared, "Video hits hard and it's right. My wife and I completely changed careers after COVID killed our jobs. We decided to start making video games at around age 40. She likes to joke that she used to think of blenders as a thing to make drinks in, and now she makes blenders in Blender. It's been a crazy few years, but we're dropping our first demo next month and looking forward to doing this for the rest of our lives. Point is, it's never too late to go after your dreams if you've got the drive."

Other comments highlighted the societal belief that if something can't be done quickly, it's not worth doing. "It's an idea closely intertwined with a societal belief that if it can't be done as soon as possible, then it shouldn't be done. Really needs to change, TBH. The first Egyptian pyramid in Giza took over a century to build."

Rick Beato's journey is an inspiring narrative for those feeling stuck or thinking it's too late to start anew. One commenter noted, "I'm turning 40 this year and figured, by 45 I'll still be playing games, might as well be 45 playing games and have a YouTube channel. So I started a YouTube channel this year."

Beato's video also inspired others to take significant life steps later in life. "And that’s why I’m starting Med School now that I’ve turned 50. Wish me luck!" another viewer shared.

Beato's channel offers a treasure trove of musical knowledge and is highly recommended for musicians and music lovers alike. One fan commented, "This is Rick Beato btw - his channel is great if you're a musician. Dude has perfect pitch, can shred, play ja**, guitar, bass, keys, drums... Or if you just love music, check out his 'What Makes This Song Great' series. He dissects all kinds of songs with their multi-track tapes, from Paul Simon to Slipknot."

With examples like Lucille Ball starting "I Love Lucy" at 40 and Colonel Sanders founding KFC at 40, Rick Beato's story stands as a powerful reminder that age is just a number. Whether you're 30, 40, or even 50, it's never too late to pursue your dreams. So take that leap of faith, work hard, and let Rick Beato's journey be the proof that it's never too late to succeed.
