If she really knew what was coming next she'd be standing on the precipice of a monumental goldmine
I remain unconvinced that VR is going to become mainstream any time soon. The headsets are way too clunky.

Remember the Motorola "brick" phone? I had one. It was awful, but the herald of things to come. In its defense, it was bulky, awkward and ugly - but did the job without being too intrusive. One could carry it in a bag and not be too inconvenienced. And, when you pulled it out, people would say, "Cool, he has a wireless cellphone!"
It was obviously the beginning of the evolution.
But until the headsets become as unobtrusive as today's cellphones are, it's a non-starter for mass acceptance. If you can make it like a pair of glasses (as Google tried) it might work.
Not ready for primetime.
Yet.
