Silicon Valley's ageism problem

A 48 year old friend of mine set up a tech firm 5 years ago with nothing too serious ever on his CV prior - he’s just gone through VC financing and is powering ahead.

My view is if you let them put you down for any reason, you’re kind of cooked anyways.

And he’s probably working more hours than ever before, but he’s OK with it now because he no longer has to listen to unstable managers attacking his self-esteem.
