This teenager presents himself in a fashion that I don't always see in adults. Logical answers to questions, correct posture, hand motions present flow. Good for this kid. I hope he continues to educate himself and move even further in life.

The difference is action. How many of us thought "please give me only what I want, and don't make it too long" - this kid took the path of action, and not only that of wish and wish list. Great kid!

I don't know the story behind this, but when large companies buy out apps like this it's usually because the app had lots and lots of users. That's probably what Yahoo bought. They have the engineers to build their own app anytime they want, but getting millions of users isn't so easy to do and has high value.

I don't respect him...and in a way, I pity him, because he'll never suffer the problems that build strength of character, integrity in most other people. Don't bother with the "jealous" comments either, I'll be finished with college in a few weeks, and it was a financial struggle that caused me many a sleepless nights, but I wouldn't have had it any other way.

In what programming app is this app made in?

Useless app. We know big companies are buying apps right and left. A lot of the time it's an insurance policy. Like Facebook paying 1 Bil for Instagram. It's about buying small competitors and not letting them grow past you or take your shareor your spotlight and if they do well then you profit either way at that point. Its why coke has like 500 brands under their belt. It's cheaper sometime to buy a brand for 30mil and let it sit then let that brand grow and take away 100+ mil from your sales. It's rich people business folks. This kid clearly had some connections the average smart and poor person does not, but look what he has to to look forward too, a life with no contrast and no true respect for what he does or did. With money ANYTHING can be done, I give the respect to the people who come from nothing, now that's hard work, that's contrast, that's something to report on.

+Frederick Wu You are on the sidelines of the sidelines my friend. I am even worse. I've tried hard to be successful and failed. In addition, I didn't get to have unprotected sex with the schoolgirl next door in the back of the bus.

+Frederick Wu I supposr you are a millionaire too then? lmaoo

Funny how half the story is missing or untold here. The kid great mind? very great yes but dd he just did it from a smiple laptop worked and created a multi million worth app? Negative. The kid had help the kid was lucky and he has a background. Tell a kid from the slumps living poverty for years who sees the world as it is and not from a already wealthy family point of view and tell the kid why he didn't come up with the same. All it takes is 3 things. Luck Wealthy and very connected parents with investors born talent 3 things 1 out of 9M people in the world may have a chance at having. I hope the kid grows up from thinking the world is that easy.

I am to an extend since in this cover they do not explain that he had the start up capital and that 2 mayor millionaire Japanese companies helped him sell it to yahoo and that he already has background of intelligence on the matter. So when i hear him say is easy and everyone can do it, yea ok, cause everyone has rich dads connected with rich companies and with just $300 dollar laptop and nothing else a kid from the ghetto can do the same. I keep forgetting I am the bad omen for seen hypocrisy at its finest. This kid will do great but he will grow up to be another stuck up rich kid thinking life is easy and money is as easy as going to a tree and with a stick pull cash down. Is there potential for people to improve in technology? of course an at any age as well but while you have grown man spending millions of millions of dollars coming up with an invention don't tell me a 17 year old just found a solution to the easiest lottery by just been bored havign a lot of time to himself and havign a cheap laptop. I love how people think best technology minds always start at a garage examples, apple and google. No no they didnt. Apple and google did not stat at a garage because they were nerds and losers they had a vast knowledge of what they were doing and had a backup. google everyone says started on their home garage, truth is not that fairy tailed because they started in MIT, this two billionaires had already finished MIT and with a small cash started in their basement since the equipment is in fact very expansive but people love to report only the fairy tailed part, yes a 17 year old made it look easier than winning lottery anyone can become a millionaire is all on you....right!

Shall We "Hate on success, and success will hate on you." The kid came up with a great idea, and he made a very good app! I have used it before and I prefer it over any alternative. Can't you just be happy for him?

lmao if i was him i would have started the q&a like this "im sorry Nick but i love your desk SO much, i'll give you 29 million dollars for it!!!... just kidding you would have to pry the money from my cold bloody hands"

Damm smart and lucky !!

Forgot to mention his family is ALREADY wealthy !! this kid is a joke.

Hong komg billionaire Lee Kaching

This guy bobs his head up and down so much

Is there a site where you can find out how many downloads an app has? Help!
