These are 2 different things.
1. You're 50 and broke. Why are you broke? What mistakes have you done, or what are the things you have not done that made you broke today? Ask yourself that, because coding will not help you at all before you improve your financial habits, as these 2 things have nothing in common. If you are reckless spending 2k a month, you'll be reckless spending 20k just as easily.
2. Learn to code at 50 ? It is possible, but in today's market, you will be competing with extremely hungry people who are in their mid 20's. Adjusting your expectations is a must. Personally, I would not take up coding at 50, but to each his own. If you still have a good mental acuity, and you have a background in mathematics or engineering or even electronics, sure, go for it. If you wanna go this path, it is critical you get at least one experienced person who is willing to help you. This will smoothen a lot of bumps down the road.
