As you think about whether you want to work on or at a startup, I want you to ask what great investors ask themselves all the time: WHY NOW?

Hey Garry, thanks for sharing your knowledge! I've been following YC for months and just found your channel. I'm interested in starting a startup and have been learning to code for the past few months. I'm currently in a Data Science BootCamp that finishes in September. I'm over 40 and I'm not sure if I should start a company right away (FOMO) or work for a startup first to get a feel for it. I would like to apply to YC but I noticed that most YC applicants have many years of experience as developers. What do you think? Thanks for all you do😎🤗
