Couldn't be further from the truth. You also have to consider competition.
Can't think of anything that could serve a major need right now, but I absolutely identified things in my life where I could use a preexisting tool to accomplish my goal, but it's much less hassle for me to use the one I made for myself. You don't have to transform the world, sometimes you can help yourself with a minor inconvenience and then put it out there for anyone who might find themselves with the same inconvenience.
True. But it seems like it's way too late to start learning any programming now. Plus it's saturated. I'll learn it on the side for fun but it'll probably never be a viable job for me
