Is 36/37 too old to have kids?

I know kids themselves don’t ruin your life but…. like I feel they trap you and you can’t do anything with them; they also waste all your money. I know you still can do enjoyable things but it’s so much more difficult. I want to travel, spend money on MYSELF, buy a house, have a good time with my bf, and have a stable and good paying job before I even THINK about having a child. I’m 22 now but just thinking about the future 😂

Yes. Even if you don't encounter fertility problems (a strong possibility at that age), you'll be left responsible for children well into your 50s and maybe your 60s. Raising teenagers when you're 60 - not fun.
