Founders Over 40

The discussion begins with the notion that founders over 40 tend to optimize for different priorities compared to their younger counterparts. A viral article highlights that individuals in this age group may lack the 'raw horsepower' they had in their youth and instead start valuing stability or lifestyle over aggressive growth. However, the speakers argue against this stereotype, asserting that many founders remain active and driven despite their age. They mention that the average age of someone starting a business is around 49, indicating that entrepreneurship can still thrive well beyond 40.
