As a young person myself, here's my take: VR is a super cool technology, and I am all for cool technology. However, I only see potential for VR in a few areas.

As a young person myself, here's my take: VR is a super cool technology, and I am all for cool technology. However, I only see potential for VR in a few areas. Obviously gaming is one of them. I also really like the idea of being able to take a massive workspace with me anywhere I go (triple 4K monitors from the comfort of a recliner? Oh yeah!). But I don't think that the vision of everybody walking around in headsets all day long is going to happen. Sure, I might replace the monitors at my desk with a VR headset, but I'm not going to use the headset more than I used my monitors. VR is primarily a drop-in productivity tool, not a life-changing invention to replace my reality. Disclaimer: I've never actually tried VR myself, although I have a feeling I'll grab a headset at some point in the next few years (maybe the alleged Valve Index 2/Deckard headset).
