You know what? I’m tired of hearing people say “I’m over 50, too old to understand this stuff” or similar balderdash. I’m over 50 and I get it, so can you! I’ve worked with and learned from some pretty amazing people who are just as old or older and way savvier than I am. It’s about the love of learning–among other things–that keeps us young.
I wanted to share with you some super-smart people who are over 50 and do get tech. They are marketers, authors, trainers, CEOs, and some are just plain geeks. Every single one of them can teach you amazing things if you’re willing to listen. Follow them on Twitter, read their blogs. Learn from them and never, NEVER say you’re too old to learn.
Oh, and let me know who I’m missing, I know there are a lot of great people to add to this list. Add away in the comments and click the links below to tweet these people thanks for being an inspiration.
