Why would anyone listen to what an 11-year-old has to say about him or herself? I mean, that's pushing my point a little far, but people that age are so immature as to basically be delusional, no matter how much they know. No one should be concerned with this.

harhar, this kid said he does astrophysics as a passion but said gaming is a waste of time. So does he think its a waste of time to have a passion? Because gaming is my passion.

Also the gaming economy has been beneficial to him in some way no doubt.

Yet like a twist out of a Hollywood action flick, Moshe combines his exceptional smarts with fearsome martial arts abilities: The preteen has won numerous national martial arts championships.

Up next for the tireless boy wonder: In the next six months to a year, he plans to devote himself to martial arts,

Not on the agenda: playing video games.

"I feel it's a waste of time playing video games because it's not helping humanity in any way," says Moshe, who wants to use his knowledge to change the world.



Video games are waste of time because it's not helping humanity in any way. But Martial Arts is not waste of time because it helps humanity in a lot of ways?

This Kid's hypocrisy knows no bounds

When he makes more money than NaDa, Moon, Grubby etc. then he can say that. But until that day: shut the fuck up kid, you might think you know it all but clearly you don't.

By his definition, music and art are a waste of time because they don't better humanity.

Actually I feel bad for the kid. It's the motherfucking parents that are to blame.

Sure he diden't get his childhood, but he will have all the time in the world (If he wants to) to do what he likes without having to do some homework. Oh and note that my footnote is actually quite relevant on this topic! I did not even see that.

Im sure its been said before, but im pretty sure the only reason he's saying this, is couse he's been forced to use his abilities to the fullest, and his parents or whoever is in controll of making him use his potential to its fullest, have probably said this and twisted it in a way he think he's can't deny without looking like a kid...which is what he is, but don't want to.

Or he's forcing himself into a lie. unwillingly accepting that being smart is everything.
