Mike, what is the best age to start a business?
Mike: Whatever age you are at this exact moment, regardless if you are 12, 25, or 81. The key is not the age as much as starting now. Clearly, you have time on your side the younger you are when you start. So regardless of your age today, you will be older tomorrow. So start today, before you get older tomorrow.
