"New Face of Entrepreneurship" Has Zits, Wears Braces

Sulfurfull Few things are more depressing than writing about a 13-year-old who is smarter, more ambitious, and soon-to-be richer than you are.

My only solace: Now you're depressed too.

This weekend, 13-year-old Anshul Samar was all the buzz on the expo floor at TiECON 2007, the big tech conference in Santa Clara, California.

Anshul's company Elementeo -- which also includes Anshul's 11-year-old sister as vice president of sales -- touts a new board game that teaches the periodic table of the elements via virtual butt kicking. His catchy slogan: "We inject fun into education!" Natch, he has a YouTube video. Check it out -- the kid's verrrrrrry smoooooth.

Anshul's goal is $1 million in first year revenues by the time his braces come off.

Another corporate baby Einstein. Yes, I'm depressed.
