Is an online business a feasible alternative for you as a baby boomer? Let’s dive right into the facts about baby boomers, online business, and entrepreneurship in general. The Kaufmann Index (U.S. only) indicates that 1996 14.8% of new entrepreneurs were older than 55 years. For 2015 the figure for the same age range is 24.3%. There are various reasons why boomers view the entrepreneurship as an interesting alternative: 1. Experienced “enough” – the old traditional career ladder was to get a good education, search for a job and climb the ladder as the opportunities appear. With the age and the new way of thinking, many boomers come to the conclusion that their knowledge and experience could pay off much better if creating their own business.
