Won a world series robotics competition on p**s all budget at 16.
Same year a big American military tech company offered to pay for his schooling full ride up to doctorate level. He turned that down because he didn't want to make weapons.
Got a girl pregnant at 18 moved to a Nordic country to be with her and started working as essentially an engineer redesigning big industrial machines (I think he was working on a qualification.) Got kicked out during COVID.
Applied for the secret service. Was made a *very* good offer, turned it down.
Now he has his own company where he designs and runs escape rooms. They're f*****g amazing escape rooms though.
Boy is a genuine genius and has a brain like a corkscrew. His hobby as a kid was to basically create the Easy India Company or decimate the stock market in MMORPGs.
If he went into finance, or stocks, or crypto, or weapons, or any number of fields he would not only excel he would have made stinking amounts of money by now, and he's still in his 20s. However, he is also fully aware of his own sociopathic tendencies and what amoral s**t he'd do in that environment.
So he decided to bend his genius locking people in little rooms and forcing them to find their way out... but you know in a fun way.
