Speaking from a younger persons point of view: what about being 26 would make you worse than say a 21 year old at starting a startup?

If you are supporting other people it may be quite a bit harder but if you are basically only supporting yourself I would see age as an advantage as you have more experience in dealing with problems and more solutions available.

Age to me seems like a silly thing to prevent you from starting a business it is the other things in like that should be taken into consideration.
