Did you know that  66 members of the 2016 Forbes world’s Billionaires list are 40 and below? That is more than triple the number four years ago and a seven fold increase since 2010.

Did you know that 25 of these billionaires made their fortunes from companies that didn’t exist 10 years ago? Airbnb ,Snapchat ,uber ,pin interest and the likes.

Age doesn’t define your ability, skill or proficiency ;Age doesn’t determine the level of your foresight and the amount of success you can attain neither is It about how long ago you started or how long you’ve been at it . These figures are totally insignificant .
