Although I'm 57 I might as well be 27 for the amount of time I've spend developing and building start-ups. I played saxophone professionally until I was 40, then gave it up as just too much work. I must be a glutton for punishment.

#25All I know is that this post just made me feel a lot older. Good God, I'm a 'seasoned vet' at 40.
22 and 4-5 years into my career. I can only hazard a guess at what I'll be doing in 20 years.
If you're happy doing what you're doing now, then my guess is the same thing. Like me. For over 20 years.

I dunno. After spending a few years sitting at a keyboard with letters on it, workin' 'til two where they close the joint with the old "You don't have to go home, but you can't stay here," seems kind of attractive. Or would, if there weren't those little wetware alarm clocks always working their particular magic... (And I could still stay up that late on a consistent basis..)

22 and a career? Wow.
Programming was still a hobby for me at that point. Still is. Sometimes wish I didn't spoil it by making it a career. ;)
I feel old now. I started a record label at 22 and wanted to do nothing but music and party. Didn't get a "career" until a couple of years later when my record label burnt out and the parties stopped...
Just remember to live a little. ;)

#2945 and still love to code. I still feel like I'm 25. I attribute this to exercise, a sense of humor and beer. (not necessarily in that order)
