YC and PG have been effectively convincing young hackers it's not too early to start a startup. Startup is the new NBA - flooded with young talents, putting school aside for a shot at the big league.

While I still believe it's never too late to start a start up, is there an upper bound on the age of YCombinator? Would love to know the statistics on the age of mature founders from YC.

In most batches the oldest founder is around 33 or 34. We don't have a rule about this; it just works out that way.
