I wonder if the author also includes bootstrapped businesses when he says "start a startup". It's an option far less talked about, but far easier to succeed at and rather satisfying for those that do. It's also a case where I think starting young has significant advantages. Life gets pretty good once you have bootstrapped revenues and a business somewhat on autopilot. Especially for the young, as they're relatively free and can enjoy location and time freedom more fully.
