It strikes me odd to consider venture capital a retirement plan. My anecdotal observation is that the age of successful VCs is decreasing. I'm guessing this follows the need to relate to younger technologies and markets. That's not to say that "older" VCs will disappear, but that the successful 50 year-old venture capitalist of 2027 will have started in 2012. Or 2007.
