23-year-old donates US$1M to support Waterloo stud...
I guess. It just kindof sucks when you're younger, sometimes it feels like people are saying "Yeah, that's really cool...for a kid".
I really don't care
that
much, I was just curious if other people my age felt the same way.

I read it as "That's really cool ... and especially cool at such a young age". I'd say the age makes it a rarer and hence more newsworthy event.
