When is the golden age of entrepreneurship? Forbes list tells you that you are 35 years old.
The above picture shows the age of the founders of world-renowned enterprises when they started their businesses. As can be seen from the picture, the boss who started a business at the age of 30-40 18 years, at most, went to college at the age of 22, worked, and had a car and a house at the age of 30 ... From the moment we were born, it seems that the clockwork was tightened, and what kind of things to do at which age had already been arranged by the "invisible hand". This scale also "stipulates" the best age to do something, such as: 3~6 years old is the golden age of language learning, and musical talent will appear before 10 years old; Excellent athletes are generally less than 20 years old ... If they don't have their own career at the age of 35, they will be classified as "middle-aged crisis", especially when the concept of "quarter-life crisis" was born, the age of anxiety was advanced 10 years old. From the age of 25, it seems that people of all ages can find a group with a sense of belonging and label you as a "loser". But we don't have to be so anxious, although many people have achieved great success at the age of 20, such as mark zuckerberg, Warren Buffett, Donald Trump and so on. But people in their thirties who haven't started their own businesses need not be discouraged. If you look at the data of the top 65,438+000 founders in Forbes list, you will find that most self-made founders started their businesses at the age of 35. For example, William Pokwete, founder of Procter & Gamble, and Masaru Ibuka, founder of Sony, all started their businesses at the age of 35, and Ma Yun also founded Alibaba at the age of 35. There are many people who start businesses after 40: Liu Chuanzhi founded Lenovo Group at 40, Huawei founder Ren, Wal-Mart founder sam walton and Wahaha founder Zong all started businesses after 40. There are also many people who started businesses after 665,438+0, such as Charles Flint, who founded IBM at the age of 66, Colonel Sanders, the founder of KFC at the age of 66, and Chu Shijian, who founded the "Chu Orange" brand at the age of 75. So, is it better to be young or late? This is like asking, "Is it better to start Facebook 19 or IBM16?" The answer is: any age is just right.
