One million years, in astronomical terms is a short period of time. Models of star development dates our solar system at around 5 billion years; this ties in with radioactive dating of meteorites and moon rock samples which dates them at 4.5 billion years.

Could the star betelgeuse have a planet harbouring life?

No. Betelgeuse is about 10 million years old, which is very young in terms stellar age and is barely enough time for a planet to form. Any planet so young would still be red hot from its formation. Despite being a young star, Betelgeuse is already dying as it has burned through the hydrogen in its core very quickly and has expanded into a red supergiant much brighter than it previously was. If a planet near Betelgeuse was the right temperature for life before the expansion, it would be too hot now.

Is the Earth still young?

It all depends on what you consider young. Scientists estimate that the Earth is 4.5 billion years old which seems like a very long time to have existed. But, considering that our planet will probably continue to exist for another 7.5 billion years until the sun reaches Red Giant stage and engulfs us, the Earth still has a long way to go.
