I think it is though. There was a discussion recently on HN about an article that said that the average founder age of the most successful startups was 42...

(btw: yes, 42!!!!)

I wonder if it has to do with 20 more years of experience, or 20 more years of dealing with, and being sick of other comapanies' BS. Maybe both.

They are just as smart, with 20 more years of experience, and now also very large networks which can get them what they want much faster.

The key in almost every successful business is relationships, and those always take time to build.

Yeah. 40 is a good age. I have read that article.
