I'd generally recommend not paying too much attention to what Paul Graham or Sam Altman say, just on general principles.
However, as you mention him:
In 1996, Graham and Robert Morris founded Viaweb and recruited Trevor Blackwell shortly after
At this point, he was 32.
Don't worry about it. The main reason that most startup founders are young is that older people are more likely to have responsibilities which make trying something new difficult for practical purposes.
