    The best thing is to make sure you are financially secure by 40.
    meaning having enough money to be flexible in the event you have to start a business venture or career change because times or relocate or industry change..

    If you have a passive income stream by then you are golden...

    If you stay in the same job title till 40-50, you best have hell lot of connections and secured finances.. because if you are good but dont have the right connections and being older, you will have a harder time. Some industries are not as receptive to older people. like tech startup.. but there is possibilities, just have to be prepared...
