1 year agoYou’re 35, not 65. You still have lots of time to be a successful entrepreneur. Shake it off, stay hungry, find another business to get into, and then work your ass off to make it a success.
I’m 38m, not married and no kids, so work has been a big part of my life and I’ve sold 2 of my businesses so far. I built an app back when I was 24 and in grad school and sold it to Google. I banked it and used it to bankroll another distribution business and got offers, like you, when I was 33 and sold it for a nice profit. To which, I put a sizable amount into another business and that’s where I’m at right now. It’s allowed me to buy my home, have 2 nice cars, a couple residential and a few commercial properties, and a decent portfolio. I had no regrets selling because I knew what I was going to do afterwards, so my advice is to plan for your future and discover how you see yourself and what you’d be doing if you let go of your business. If you don’t have a plan, you may want to take a beat. Good luck.
