It has become a habit of us to judge everyone who’s born with a silver spoon. We normally assume that they’re pretty much dependent on their family’s wealth and are incapable of achieving anything on their own. There is a man, however, who is different. Born in 1995, Mario Ho Yau Kwan is the third child of Macau casino tycoon Stanley Ho and his fourth wife Angela Leong.

Stanley Ho is known as “The King of Gambling”. He’s responsible for the rise of Macau as a gambling haven.

He is also Macau’s wealthiest person and among the richest in Asia.

Stanley Ho has four wives and seventeen children in total, and Mario Ho is the youngest living son.

Mario Ho’s not just a pretty face, he’s also a mathematical genius.

As a child, he already had impressive results. He won the championship title twice in a national math competition in Hong Kong.

When he was 18, he got offered places in both Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) and Oxford.

He chose the former and finished a 4-year course at MIT in just 3 years.

In the same year, Mario Ho was accepted into the university’s Master of Finance Program, making him the youngest student in history.

As many of you have realised, I graduated in 3 years. Let me do a bit of explaining.. On average MIT students take 4 classes a semester. In my second year, I took 8. It meant I didn't have time to party much, or even to eat much, it meant I had so much work I'd forget which problem set was for which class. Why I put such a burden on my shoulders? Aside from wanting to start my own company, I wanted to show the world I could achieve the impossible. The person next to me, he is the only other person I know in my year that also graduated early. 为什么我会能够三年毕业?一个普通的MIT学生每个学期平均读4门课。我大二那年,我每天没能吃没能睡,功课多到我经常忘了哪一份是哪一课的,就是为了每学期读了8门。为什么这么辛苦?因为我想让世界知道我可以用我双手达到一个正常麻省理工高材生也很难达到的目标,因为我就是我 😎 在我身旁的是另一位我认识能够早毕业的朋友,Class of 2017我们两个跟你提前说再见咯 👋🏻 #MIT #Graduation

He was only 21 years old.

After graduation, he chose not to rely on his family’s wealth and moved to Shanghai alone to start his own business.

Just like any other boy, Mario Ho has grown to love soccer and has gathered numerous signatures from many sports stars.
He also participated in many television shows. Recently, he gained fame through his amazing performance in the recent Chinese show “Burning Brain”.
Among 100 contestants, he emerged first twice in three rounds of competition, wowing everyone with his mathematical skills. This gave him a direct ticket to the final round.

He also likes to show how much he loves his younger sister, which gives him a lovely brotherly image.

Although he is often away from home, we can see that this guy has a good heart towards those that are important to him.
