I'm too late for youtube :(

disagree... There's people on this site who started not to long ago on youtube and seem to be getting quite a good following and mostlikely will get "youtube famous". It's all about
  • your personality ( what kind of person you are)
  • your quantity (how often you post)
  • how you share your stuff (family, friend, forum, etc)
  • and your quality (quailty of your videos...)
 
My channel got big 3 months ago, basically I had 0 active subs untill back then. Just look at my socialblade if you don't believe me.

Sure you might not be able to get 7 million subscribers now, since people who have that have been rolling the snowball.
But if you have succesfull widely appealing videos known as "gateway videos" and you know how to grow a big channel, you're not too late in any way.

Spot on dude, as always.
 
i don't believe you need to have started way back! there are many ways to get there just takes time, the reason the people are big from way back is because they already put in their time. We will make it one day!

There's always going to be the rare new channels that hit a niche and get noticed. For most of us we just have to go through the motions of planning good videos, polishing them up as much as we can and stay consistent.

Instead of regretting how you didn't jump on the YouTube earlier, figure out your plan of attack now to build your audience and market.
 
I know someone who started a channel under a year ago and has 700,000+ subscribers. If someone has got good content people will subscribe.
 
I don't think it's too late, but I do agree with the stiff competition and the audience's expectations for higher standards of videos/content, it is certainly harder.. I'm also a very small time youtuber albeit I have inactive for almost 5 years due to IRL and college.
 
You mean people who have been at it are bigger and better at it then people who have been doing it for months? Do go on.......

It's like saying yeah I'm too late to be a great sports player because there was some really great ones 5 years ago. But now everyone has good teachers....
 
I don't agree also. If you have good idea and can make good movie you will grow fast. Look at AsapScience channel. They have joined 1 year ago, now they have 800k subscribers and 67m views.
