In most cases, with age comes wisdom. But it may be harder (for some) to think of the Baby Boomers as the engine of economic recovery in the coming years.

The Ewing Marion Kauffman Foundation in Kansas City, Missouri recently published research entitled “The Coming Entrepreneurship Boom” by Dane Stangler, that concludes this as fact.

Baby Boomers will lead the “Boom” back to economic health in the United States.  As entrepreneurship becomes “the new mid-life crisis”.

This does not match the idea I had of entrepreneurial society being headed by the 20 to 34 age group.  Instead it has been led by the 55-64 demographic.

There’s hope for the world…

Have you noticed more older people going into small businesses over the last decade?
