I certainly had much more time & energy for startup shenanigans in my mid 40s than I did in my mid 30s. But even with that experience I’d be very hesitant to extrapolate about any age because of how different everyone’s lives are.

I don't want to speculate too wildly, but I think it may be possible that everybody's life and energy levels and motivation and interests are not tracked on the same fixed linear path.

Though I guess it would be nice as somebody in my 20s to picture that my future is an established track to follow.

Or at the very least, to be able to say to yourself, “You’re doing fine. You’re beating yourself up because you haven’t started a company in your 20s, but that’s ok. Because you haven’t aged out of being a founder, and you can still do what drives you.”
