I really love how the mother let her son do the talking and only helped out a little bit to strengthen his words. Great parenting!

Kinda interesting, it's more like: the profile of good parenting. We don't know how they prepared

[@azrielaurelio8342]

I like how Mark tailors his comments and questions in a way that an articulate 11-year-old could understand. Using words like "Instagram" and "KZbin" instead of digital marketing, and asking "Where do you see yourself 2 years, 5 years from now?"

Mark has emotional attachments to smart young entrepreneurs, and I feel he genuinely wanted to help. Sometimes, he does that, not because of business aspirations. He's hurt, but not because of the business side of the deal. It's about not getting the opportunity to work with and help develop this young talent.

11 years old and working with Richard Branson. That's freaking awesome.

[@SilenceSlayer223]

I love how Richard Branson dodged his question. He couldn't answer it obviously because he didn't know much about the business model or what the company needs, so he kind of BS'd his way through an answer.

[@wrenlinwhitelight3007]

Keep in mind here, Richard Branson is worth over $3.5 billion. The richest shark in history, if I'm not mistaken. He see's a lot of himself with this kid's vision so I feel like he was the best choice - he has nothing substantial to lose even making a wildly generous deal.

Richard Branson doesn't need to answer it. He will simply hire a full on team to focus on the business so he doesn't have to. That's how billionaires get S done.
