Anyone else see this headline and thought, "Some government gave them a 10-year-old?"



Haha yes, that's exactly how I interpreted it. Removing the "with $10,000" from the actual headline made this a bit ambiguous.


A ten year old with $10,000. ;) That's more money than most kids that age have to their name.


In straight cash USD, that's more money than most people in the world have to their name.

[Edit: straight cash == completely liquid assets]


Agreed. Even most USians.

(I was just playing on the idea of FB getting a kid and saying getting one w/cash was even better!)


That wouldn't be a real reward, more like a liability.


Actually yes. I had to read a few times before it clicked.


YES lol This was my first thought as well! "Facebook awarded a 10 year old"
