H1-B.

I think it's the other way round. Someone who is 20 can expect to still be single and energetic when they are 27 or even 29.

If you are 31, then you are looking at doing a startup when you are 40+. Who knows if you will have the energy, not be tied down by family, or even still have relevant skills.

Thanks for your advice.

By the way, "go for broke" is just an expression. It means to commit fully.
