This article sets up a straw-man argument by claiming the reason why VCs invest in young people and not older people is because creativity diminishes in older age. I think their refutation of this idea is well done with good evidence, but who's to say that's the reason VCs invest in young people?

I think one of the main skills that young people bring is relentless execution and incredible thirst for learning. Especially when you pair these skills with the investment team who bring tons of experience, it seems to be a winning combination for the 100x ROIs.
