Could anyone explain where this obsession with youth is coming from? Many people in control want more attention for themselves. One great way is to say "I made that" but refer to people. So, you see investors and industry "mentors" sweep up young people, hope they succeed, then run around saying "I knew this kid was great when he was only 18! Look at me! I'm so smart! I'm Mr. Look At Me!" A 45 year old investor can't invest in a 45 year old CEO with the same perverse sense of pride around "making it."
