Unless you have physical or mental disabilities brought on by aging, I don't see how your age would have anything to do with it. Either you can build a successful business or you can't. Since prior experience and connections and accumulated skills will play into that, you have some advantages over someone half your age. I will turn 62 this year, and I'm enjoying the most lucrative and interesting stage of my long career in software. Other than the ham-fisted age discrimination people our age might encounter at job interviews I don't see any impediments.
