> The story we hear the most is of young CEOs. The thing about this is that even pointing to someone that was a successful CEO at 26 doesn't tell you much about whether it's better to be a young founder. Someone that's a successful founder at 26 may well have been a successful founder at 56 but they didn't need to be a successful founder at that time. There are lots of reasons to not start a successful company in your youth, and those same people still have 30 or more years to do so.
