I met someone through YC Co-founder matching. I like them but here are few concerns :
- I am 36, he is 58. Do you see a problem with such a huge age difference? I mean, I can get along with them well, but it would be hard to be casual with and enjoy being with them if there is such an age difference.
- He is too much experienced and senior to me. I am individual contributor in FANNG, he has been CEO and held various C level positions for last 15 years. My total experience is not even 15 years. (We have agreed on 50-50 split already)
- I will clearly be close to technical things (he can't code) and he will naturally gravitate towards business dev and sales etc. I wasn't looking for "complementary skills" since I had already planned to do PMF, sales, growth etc but if I go with him, we will have complementary skills which according to YC is a bad idea.
