The Best Time to Start a Business Might Be Right Now: A Guide for Retired Men

from The Encore Project Podcast · host The Encore Project

Retirement is not the end of your productive life — for many men, it’s the beginning of their most entrepreneurial one. Free from the constraints of a corporate ladder, a boss, and someone else’s agenda, retired men are starting businesses in record numbers. And they’re succeeding at higher rates than younger entrepreneurs, because they bring something no accelerator can teach: decades of experience, an established network, and the clarity that comes from knowing exactly what they’re good at. In this episode, we walk through how to identify the right business idea, how to start lean, and how to avoid the most common mistakes retired entrepreneurs make.
