I hate the sentiment that 45 is too late. Is there any statistics? Any evidence to support the theory? Not as far as I'm aware.
I really wish I could downvote this post.

I'm 20, and have no plans to actively start my own business in the next few years. I have no great ambition in that regard, and unless you have such drive, anything you attempt will be less than what could be.
But I know if I discover some new-found passion I wish to venture upon in my 50s, and there is no business established for it yet or that the current king of the hill is in desperate need of a good shake down, I will jump without hesitation into my own start-up venture.
I mean, I hope. 30 years is 150% of my current number of rotations of Earth that I have spent breathing of my own accord.
It gets harder. That doesn't mean it's impossible.
None of us likes to think about getting old. "Old" is always 5-15 years older than we are. That's why we don't realize the danger of ageism until it bites us on the behind.
