38 with 3 fails, still worth it?

Hi all,
I`ll soon be turning 38, and the aviation bug is still with me every day.
Every since I was a boy I wanted to fly and just be around planes, till now I was never able to afford the training.
Any way, ff over the boring details, I got my PPL, NVRF and also my UPRT and have some hours under my belt so I started my ATPL.
So far I have gone trough 3 ATPL sessions with not so great results.
Mass and balance failed.
Performance failed once and passed it second time.
Flight planning failed two time
Operational Procedures failed two times.
So that makes it 3 subjects failed and 6 fails in total.
Of course the end goal would be the fly as a professional pilot and make a living out of it, but considering my age and that I failed so many times on the theory I`m having second though on weather should I still pursuit this or let it go.
I know is never to late to start any thing and all that, but, given my situation is it?
Any though, ideas or advice is much appreciated, thanks.
