SO WHAT ? these numbers are pointless.
Well - for a start they act as counter to the argument I see in lots of places in the tech world - here too on occasion - that there is some special advantage to being a young entrepreneur. That doesn't appear to be true.
And for those who do value marriage and kids - it helps them see that this isn't a barrier to running a successful new business.
It's just data for goodness sake. It's not saying that you should marry and have kids. Indeed I suspect that it's largely a correlation to the age of the successful folk.
