Playing lots of video games will give kids many of the skills they need to succeed in the future

The cultural narrative around video games is that they’re bad for you.

But if the future is as digital as I think it’s gonna be, that can’t be true. If so, the optimal amount of video game playing is nowhere close to zero.

Don’t get me wrong: video game addiction isn’t the answer either.

But by teaching you about cryptocurrencies, digital leadership and making friends online, they’ll give kids a taste of what the future looks like.
