Why not?
why chess?

I play chess because there is no end to improvement. It is a way for me to feel like I'm using my time successfully. If I improve enough there are chances for me to travel all around the world. The game seemingly will never die. The list of 'why chess' goes on and on. It is as K4rbon said "pure beauty."

How will chess help you travel all over the world?

Your only objection is that it's not a sport? That's funny. Next, you'll be saying chess doesn't make you taller.
