      +Bobby Wu technically, thy're not billionaires yet, and the only reason why child entrepreneurs have become a thing is because internet access has become affordable to even working class families in developed countries.
      But there are african child inventors. there's one guy who, at 15 years old, built his own radio station and portable radios out of scrap materials and sold the portable radios to his village, which had no electricity until he began selling home made batteries. Another african kid built a windmill to harvest renewable electricity, to help supply his village with electricity

    It's not because you talk like an entrepreneur, that you are one. These kids just hear there (ambitious) parents and teachers talking, and just copy them. So then a seven year old goes like "I wanna be my own boss, be independent in life". It's just phrases they picked up, they don't know what they mean.

    • @GamesweiveR
      @GamesweiveR 9 ปีที่แล้ว +11

      This is true. While many of them may get bored with business or not have the stomache/ambition for it as they grow older, I do hope many of them stick with it. As an entrepreneur myself I try to talk to kids and show them theres more to life than a 9-5, but kids these days are so lazy... We need a generation to lead once we're gone, and im happy to see this.

I dont care that much to look further into his details , I m just saying. Yes there are kids with his talent ,but there are not that many it can t be compared with a video game ;) it just can t. He thinks while he writes the code , looks for solutions , and does something kids of his age usually by a strong majority don t even think of doing.

      1. I said he s getting a lot of experience from his work ,I never said he is going to be the future billionaire or something ,it is just persons like you and him are rare ;) . Even if maybe you are surrounded with people that have a lot of knowledge and talents , that doesn t mean that the talents seen by you in them are that common. For a good programmer it is quite common to have the mentioned traits , but for the rest of the world it isn t ,mostly . There are 18.5 million programmers roughly worldwide ,while there are more than 7.6 billion people. If you compare the two , the abilities of progammers are quite unique ,even if they are common in their group.
      2. You think coding is just as easy as gaming because you actually learnt it but for the other common folk ranging from 14 to 60 or older that never ever layed their fingers on an IDE the whole thing will look like wizardry to them at the first glance.And even if they actually tried once they will be reluctant to learn it for personal reasons(it might be boring for them , they don t have an algorithmic mind , they don t use their creativity to the fullest etc).
      3. Visual Studio is not that basic ,it is very popular because you have most of the languages of the world there to download and you can make both easy and difficult projects , it depends on the individual knowledge , creativity and so on.
      Will you see surgeons complaining on most of the operations can be? No , for them is second nature.
      If you feel like it is easy to program , then it means you mastered it at some degree .

      The problem is not that there overconfident. Most people don' have the guts to try and run their own buisness. Too many people think like engineers and would rather work on the idea than learn valuable skills in running a buisness. Schools teach a dated factory model of conformity. These kids will do very well in life as the overconfident ones are willing to put themselves out there to get results

      You certainly make good points Ryan, but I disagree with your conclusion that over-confidence leads to success. America is number one globally in overconfidence, but I don't think (just guessing here) that they have a higher ratio of business start-ups per 1000 people than anywhere else in the world.

    After reading all the comments, I'm just blown away. There is more to life than money, far more. I'd rather die poor and happy than live rich and miserable. Without life's tough lessons to teach them these kids may grow up to be selfish arseholes. They might get lucky and live full enjoyable lives, but what are the chances? And who's to say these kids will continue to have the drive they need to push ahead with this stuff?
    I started my second business at 25 and within 3 years was taking home, after tax and expenses, $10,000 a week. One selfish wife and a divorce later and I was on the dole. Life has a way evening things out. I never got the desire or the drive needed, to start again, back after that. Sure, I've done ok, but I learned very quickly that nothing last in this world. Now, I've traveled more than most people, I meet a spectacular, caring, loving woman in America and we live in Australia. She's happy, I'm happy and that's all that matters. Sure, we struggle from time to time with money, but even the very wealthy have money issues. It's not about how much you earn, people, it's about how much you burn.

Do you want to leave a mark, not only in your family line, but in the whole becoming generations by being a recognised person? Or are you just going to sit there and say: "money's not important"

    @vsheartless960 9 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    watching this makes me hate my mom..
    she realised very early that I was a fast learner and held me back intentionally so I would have things to learn at preschool, kindergarden and school in general..
    but instead I just ended up resenting the teachers for not teaching me stuff fast enough, eventually I stopped filling in the tests since they were just repeats of old ones.. for some reason they got worried I had trouble understanding, they gave me a diagnostic test and I aced it..
    then the cycle just continued, they spent the next years asking me why I performed so poorly on tests when they knew I allready knew this stuff - I thought the question itself held the answer..
    I changed schools, aced the diagnostic tests.. and the same shit started again.. atleast this school had lectures with discussions, opinions and diffrent perspectives mattered all of a sudden - so there was a passtime besides performing mediocre at tests..
    the first academic validation I felt was when there was a brief mention about stephen hawkins in the media of the gamma radiations from black holes, because it confirmed the equations in my head that kept my occupied in school.. simply put black holes are not black they are white, matter is black, they don't pull the universe in they expand it.. old news now yes but back then I felt so happy there was something my equations applied to..
    reading about quantum physics calmed my mind.. I could understand it.. just not talk to anyone about it.. (how I wrote it now is how I've learned to explain it rather then the more accurate way of describing it)
    and then shit happened with everyone and everything in my life.. and I spent the next years depressed, I'm finally glad again and couldn't really care less about a certified education, can't stand the system...
    I've spent most of this time learning to explain myself so as many as possible can understand me, I'm finally happy how well I'm now able to do so.. (even if I feel as if I'm recovering from a brain injury, it is just so slow this way..)
    Seeing this video about these children being so clever made me resentful, jealous, I haven't really accomplished much and it frustrates me how much I could have been able to do if I would have had support growing up.. I had the need for a guide as I had no clear direction besides just learning, the teachers briefly filled this role but not to my desire..
    I know I'm happy now.. it is just the overachiver in me screaming for validation but I know I'll be happier not seeking it.
    (the reference about brain injury is my perspective about how it is to learn how to talk about "the shapes that my equations make" instead of the number that no one really understands..
    forgoing the left side for the right side even if I think that is rather nonsensical way of formulating it I can't help to think that is what I'm doing when I'm "translating" numbers into images that I can explain more easily..)

    Imagine them at the age of 30. No friends, no real friends that is, no experience that came at a certain life span and is merely a "one time only" thing within that life span, weird expectations from people around them, social skills at a zero degree freezing point and what not. Parents are parents not only because kids need to have some food and clothing, but also to accomodate kids with the very best they can have - a childhood. Fairy tales, games, basic education... kids got a lot of time to learn that the world is fucked up and that many people work all day to get some money to spend it again so they can go work all day again. Until they die one day.
    But don`t get me wrong. Paid education is a good thing in some places, since many of todays schools accept a variation of children with a wide range of ideas and at the end they emmit sterile gray shaded people with a diploma, where one is like the other.

These kids are building your kids futures. Does Bill Gates seem unhappy? Steve Jobs? Oprah? Being an entrepreneur puts you in contact with powerful allies and friends. As an entrepreneur its frustrating listening to people talk about sports and tv shows and blah blah im broke and job sucks blah... I LOVE hanging out with people like me because we can (literally) move mountains if we need to to get things done. Im happy these kids wont be experiencing the "work till you die" lifestyle so many people fall into. And the best thing? You could be doing it too if youd take the blinders off. Put down the beer, stay at home, save $, invest/build/invent with the $ and tweak it till you take flight. In America ANYONE can make it, but most people never even try. Peace.

      ...and I am not jealous, I wish everybody just the best (until they piss me off for no reason), I got a happy life, I am not the "work till you die" person, I got around 9 friends (on Facebook around 100 but that is for sport events reason so I can send everybody invitations)

    I totally agree with this video, we kids have power and we can still live a fun childhood, but work hard and study. I'm sure these kids will live a wealthy life when they get older, Thank You
