Britt David Magnet Academy in Columbus, Georgia, holds an annual “Millionaire Bash” to celebrate kindergartners who read 1 million words during the school year. The kids get dressed up, arrive at school in a limo, and sign autographs for the assembled parents. This year, one millionaire kid in particular is going viral after his uncle tweeted out photos of his sweet outfit.

Stunting on everyone and looking like a young Andre 3000 in his hat, bowtie, and suspenders, this kid has everyone on Twitter envious of his ensemble.

The event is a tradition dating back years. Former Britt David students, now in college, look back on it fondly.
Lmao I remember at Britt David we would get the limo ride, went and got pizza, and then had that big entrance when you got back to school 😂 https://t.co/BJTfi2Nzgj

How impressive is a million words, really? Very! A million words is roughly the first three books of George R.R. Martin’s lengthy A Song of Ice and Fire series. Considering only half of American adults manage to read five books in a year, that’s a big achievement for a kid. And lest you think it’s easy to cheat the system, the dapper millionaire’s uncle tweeted that the students are quizzed on the books they finish.
Yeah. A.R. books.. they read em and then have to take a quiz on them https://t.co/O0BzuiNPN3

With that kind of literacy and fashion sense, this bunch of young kings and queens has a bright future.
