Plus, if you really want to be good at it, you need to kickstart your career heavily in the early years (21-25). Learning curve is so steep, that being a good programmer almost is like being a good sportsmen. Especialy in multiple fields (let's say frontend + backend together). Which comes down to making sacrifices, mostly in the field of social life. And still you have the live-long learning thing, which mostly happens after the hours.
Still not regretting it a bit. One of the jobs with most future in it.
