Mike Ciman
This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice.
Success can be achieved at any stage of life
To prove it, we bring you 30 inspiring stories of people who have achieved their dreams or found great success, after the age of 50.
In a world that often glorifies youth as synonymous with innovation and dynamism, these stories challenge that notion, demonstrating that age can be a valuable ally in the entrepreneurial journey.
Among the examples you will find are figures like Harland Sanders, who founded KFC at the age of 62 and turned the brand into one of the world's most recognized fast-food chains. You will also meet Vera Wang, who became a renowned fashion designer and founded her wedding dress brand at the age of 50, and Charles Flint, who at the age of 61 founded the company that would become IBM, a technology giant.
Their stories are testimony to the fact that experience, combined with an indomitable will to create and innovate, can lead to extraordinary achievements.
