(a) The idea

Why 52 Over 50?

We've all seen the lists. 30 Under 30. 40 Under 40. People to watch. But interesting things don't stop happening at 50.

People change careers. Start businesses. Leave jobs. Go back to old ideas. Try new ones. Get knocked sideways. Find another direction.

Sometimes they know exactly where they're headed. Sometimes they don't. Both make good stories.

52 Over 50 is one conversation a week with someone worth hearing from.
