What do you think?

Assuming the MorningCoffee is using reverse psychology.
There have been many who achieved the GM title only after they retired. The answer lies with you. Do you have the ambition? Do you have the time to invest? Do you have the talent needed? Do you have the resources needed to train? And, most important, can you stay sane enough long enough?
You ask for an intelligent answer, so maybe think a bit about the intelligence of your question. It's not precise. Is it possible? Almost anything is possible. But how likely is it? Is it too late? When did you start playing? If you just started, what can we say?
The answer of #3 is not a bad one. If you don't get it, you will never be a titled player.
I became an FM at age 34, so no, it's not too late. The question is, are you willing to pay the prize? And an even better question is, what will be the benefits? Is it worth it? (Answer: there are no benefits, it's not worth it.)
Best wishes my friend!
#12 I got it, but it's not the kind of answer i was expecting. It was a simple yes or no question + argument, i have no intention of playing psychological games on a stupid forum.
I had already to much alcohol, so maybe this is the reason why I don't understand the sense of asking such questions to this "stupid forum".
I'm sure most players here will give you the best advice they can if you come up with a precise question.
As I said before, the problem is the question, not the answers. To become a strong player, first thing should be to criticize yourself and not the others.
Enough said from my part. Go to another forum if you think they have better answers.
You can, but it is a serious thing. You would need some hard work. I am 15 too and my goal is to be World Champion, probably not the best idea as now I cant leave chess until the goal is achieved, which is driving me crazy, but again, what can you do when you love the game? Lol
It depends on your visual memory, your ability to memorise patterns, learn from mistakes, generate ideas over the board and concentration. On the other hand, if you have eidetic memory you can achieve a GM title in few years with some effort independently of age, considering you are both mentally and physically healthy.

Now, it seems your FIDE rating could be something under 1000 and your "game curve" in lichess is not improving at a fast pace after 300 games, so I do not see you with a 2000 FIDE before being 18/19 years old more or less. However, if you achieve a 2000 FIDE being 20 years old you could achieve 2300/2400 before 30s but with dedication and hours. But do not expect to be a 2700 never. People with it have been playing since their early childhood and they have a high IQ.

Do you have good memory and IQ?
#16 Mmm no, I'm a noob ok, but let's not exagerate. What does IQ have to do with chess?
Gifted people think faster (important for chess clock), have better memory (important to memorise positions), are creative (important to generate ideas and chess tactics), and have better concentration (important for blunders). You don't need to be a chess master or a FIDE master. Chess is good for problem solving, everyday life and professional life. Don't get frustrated for a number. To be 2000 or 2500 won't give you success in life and this could take you away time for other important things in life. My advice is: if you improve 500/600 points in one year, go ahead. If not, take it as a hobby, enjoy chess, or work as a chess teacher.
I think it's impossible because the OP plays very badly and people with around 900 real life rating play in same quality like players with around 2200 classical rating here.
There's a clock inside your lichess profile which tells you the total time spent in chess playing. Have a look a it once a while and reflect on about it. That's my last advice.
