Either hes going to have a good but generic life or be a complete mess before he can legally drink.

I remember this kid named Jake Barnett from about 10 years ago who was an annoying little shit. Dropped off the radar a while back but his folks were in the news over a bizarre story where they thought their adoptive daughter as an adult little person who tried to get a free ride. Talk about fishy.

You never hear any of these child prodigies do anything worthwhile in their life in the future. Bunch of child geniuses who grow up and have such a poor skill relating to the average person that everyone hates them and they get stuck working in a lab alone somewhere.

In this world, is the destiny of man controlled by some transcendental entity or law? Is it like the hand of God hovering above?

I mean why would you hear about a random person working in NASA or whatever? But yeah it is weird that we never hear about them years later

They're not random though, they are geniuses supposedly you'd think a genius out there would have an Instagram account with at least 10,000 followers, alas, being a genius doesn't get folks to like you.

regression to the mean. there is, however, Terrence Tao, who actually exceeded expectations if possible and seems to lead a healthy life outside of his career. there's this other guy who went to grad school for math at Stanford in the 80s as a child and it looks like he's been a software consultant for a long time. nothing earth shattering but it does show that there is a range of outcomes. of course there are all the washouts, too. Outliers kind of goes over what makes a prodigy successful in the long run but, you know, it's pop nonfiction.

Don't know. Story vanished like Jake. I don't trust those parents.
