Of course, no one is giving up on Gen Z.
But personally, I find creators who are significantly older than me especially interesting to follow.
They genuinely have a wealth of life experience, and you want to listen to what they have to say.
Thankfully, the days when people were expected to “act their age” are over.
A dancing middle-aged millionaire may have shocked us once. But today, it’s so commonplace that he would be unlikely to attract the same level of attention.
Older creators are becoming interesting not despite their age, but partly because of it.
And maybe we follow them for more than just their experience. They show us a version of our own future that we don’t have to be afraid of.
