Man that is so true about 35. I would say it's not about your prime but more about the fact it is the point where you have gained enough experience/wisdom but still retain enough risk tolerance that you can make big decisions about life and career that pay off in the long term. At 40 I'm a bit more defensive than I was at 35. I could not bootstrap 2 startups concurrently again today, 35 was the last time I could do that. Physical prime happened somewhere early 30s, mental prime is still probably ahead of me.
