i want to play the piano but?
im 14 and i have never touched a piano in my life, i would love to be able to play it, well…but i cant afford a piano until i move out and i would probably end up teaching myself seeing as my parents disowned me when i told them i was a lesbian(i was 11 or 12),
meaning i am stuck with absolutely no college and film school help..they wont help me financially when i move out and dont consider me a part of the family…
i have clarinet experience and have been playing it/reading music since 5th grade. im going into 8th grade, and transferring schools at the beginning of next year because i have been recommended for a more prestigious school for higher academic goals, and this school has an outstanding music program. i was wondering…how many people can successfully become pianists when they learn so late in life? chances are i would be 18 or 19 before i could start…
also, i was concerned that i wouldnt be able to play the piano because it would be confusing to be playing a different part with each hand
but i type on the computer much faster than average, so maybe that would put me at a bonus as being able to work with my hands at a fast pace(average around 50-70 words per minute)
i have been recommended to join high-school band next year although i will only be in 8th grade
is it likely that i would be able to learn piano and become successful? sorry for repeating myself

EDIT: i mentioned filmschool because i would like to be either a fimmaker, or enter into the music business at an arts school, bor symphany orchestra or maybe even a career as a singer…but i know, it is EXTREMELY Hard to make it big in the music buisness without a boost into the spotlight
Yes it is possible for you to still be able to play piano. I am 15 and I have had the idea of playing piano since i was 10 and because my parents just couldn’t afford it there was a music class at my school and i got to play piano for like 1 year but you don’t necessarily need to buy a piano a keyboard works to practice on and when you turn 16 get a job and pay for your own lessons sorry about your parents close- mindedness.
