> am I too old to be starting my own company or should I chill out because I still have time. Seems to me youth or age are probably less relevant questions than whether you see an opportunity (and to what degree it's proven), what domain expertise is necessary to address it (and whether you have or can get access to that), and what resources you have available. And as you noted, there are risks to simply settling into corporate comfort.
