Chuck Barris sold his dating game to a TV channel at a high price and then we hear Chuck Barris's narration:

I figured I was in. All I had to do was get the pilot made, and I'd be a millionaire. Everyone would love me. Was anyone ever so young?

What is the meaning of "Was anyone ever so young"? Does it mean "Chuck Barris would be young millionaire"?

He had made it big at a relatively young age. Maybe that's what that means.
 
He means, had he (or anyone else) ever been such a young, inexperienced, naive person?
 
In a previous thread, one of my corrections was to the year of that film. IMDb clearly shows that Confessions of a Dangerous Mind was released in 2002. Please make sure you get the information right when you credit a source.
