Why would you want to become GM?
This is a silly question. Of course you’d “want” to become gm. The question is whether or not you would want to put in the time and effort to achieve that title while also retaining a very high chance of failure.

GM seems like a waste of time. Spend years playing a board game to get two letters next to your name?

Your question is “why would you want to be gm?” Which does not take into consideration the effort you’d need to make the title, but only why you WANT the title. I want a billion dollars. I don’t think I need to explain why. I also really want a restroom. There isn’t one nearby.

But a GM title basically means nothing... No one who isn't a chess player will care if you are "GM" or not.
It's possible if he's already at the threshold of Candidate Master at only 17; far different than just starting out at that age, as was discussed in another forum on this subject of grandmaster likelihood. The REAL question is, would he want to become a GM for the sake of recreation or to make a living at it? There's too much GM competition out there for anyone for it to be a lucrative living, I think...
At the end of the day, all human accomplishments mean nothing. The world simply does not care.
A jaded nihilist!
