Ageless quote - 'Instead of just asking "Why me?" ask yourself these questions to determine if becoming an entrepreneur after you retire from your job is a smart move for you.'

"Why is an ageless startup right for you? When you consider your options, you’ll likely see that the question perhaps shouldn’t be “Why me?” but rather “Why not me?” Consider this: You have skills and knowledge that have taken most of a lifetime to accumulate.

You have the time to build a new career slowly and thoughtfully that can reflect the values you want to leave for those who follow.

You have networks of friends, colleagues and connections and that are unique in history.

You have the passion to make a difference and time enough on the planet to not care what others think about you."

New podcast interview - Humanitarian Entrepreneur

Image
I had a great conversation recently with Tiffany Moore at The Humanitarian Entrepreneur podcast. Among other things, we focused on opportunities for older entrepreneurs (3:27), what are the biggest myths that entrepreneurs face in the second half of their lives (5:04), the Center for Ageless Entrepreneurs, and the importance of teams. (12:18) Among my favorite takeaways was this: "We work in teams now and those with the best teams win. The idea is ot get yourself armored up so you can protect yourself and your family as you run your business. Then get into a team. That's why we're building these networks." - Rick (11:20) Thanks Tiffany for a great conversation!
