Giving Thanks for Energized Nonagenarians

          Dave Lambert is like most hard-working entrepreneurs in the U.S. today. His latest venture is the creation of David’s Delicious Chocolates, a company that serves the special dietary needs of diabetics and those with gluten, dairy, egg, soy or nut sensitivities. He wheels and deals throughout the global marketplace and mentors others workers who are interested in pursuing their dreams.

         The main difference from other entrepreneurs is that Mr. Lambert is 90 years old. In spite of his age, he is energetic and enjoys a productive lifestyle. He started his latest chocolate venture when he was diagnosed with diabetes.

          I love another example of a 90 year old entrepreneur, Barbara Beskind, from our own Silicon Valley…yes, the Silicon Valley where anyone over 30 is considered antiquated without any fresh ideas. Barbara began working during WWII as an occupational therapist, and today she works at IDEO, the firm that designed Apple's first mouse, the pilates machine and dozens of high-tech gadgets.
