This just absolutely amazed me...... 
VUNET
Arfa Karim Randhawa, aged 10, has become the youngest person to be certified as a Microsoft engineer.
Randhawa passed her Microsoft Certified Professional examinations last year. She met Bill Gates this week and was taken on a tour of Microsoft's Redmond campus.
The 10 year-old, from Faisalabad in Pakistan, asked Gates why children were not allowed to work for Microsoft and was told that they should concentrate on their school studies.

I disagree. Earning lots of money (if she does) will not necessarily keep "money problem" away from her. Many rich people have money problem simply because they do not spend the money they earn well. Its what she does with the money she earns that determines whether or not she'll have money problem 
Back to topic, she deserves all the support she can get. Kids like herself show up once in a yellow moon.
