Started early, then took a lot of spread-out breaks from chess. Then the pandemic happened, so I started playing chess for real for the first time.

Yeah I mean there are 10 year olds who achieve master level ratings by osmosis while most of us wouldn't reach that level in 20 years with conscious study and play

Don’t we need to prep you up?
I saw that thread about her.
If your significant other bests you in chess (it’s not going to happen); we have an obligation to build you up.

yeah cause it sucks how much i missed my chances back then, maybe i could have been NM when i was younger but now as i get older it will probably be hard but still teens so have chances
I would’ve wished I took chess more seriously at that age tbh
Same. I used to think people who played it were nerds

My youngest brother is literally like me except he started everything earlier. He started playing the piano at 6, I started at 9. He started playing basketball at 5 1/2, I started at 8. He started playing chess when he was 5, I started when I was 8.
That's the same with my younger brother and I, minus the basketball. I started chess at 6, he started at 4. I started piano at 5, he started at 4.
Youth is wasted on the young.
