Hi folks!

Just wanted to say that it IS possible to make good money and have fun
breaking security. Lots of security researchers out there are offered
very generous positions which sometimes allows them to work from home.

In many of these positions the researcher chooses what to break, and
the employer is OK with that since they also get good publicity for
publishing the findings anyways.

In short, it IS possible to have fun while working and make very good
money. Does that mean you're not a hacker anymore? I don't think so!
What it means is that you're clever since you managed to do what you
like, legally, and get paid very good money for breaking toys just
like you used to do when you were a child.

Regards,
AP.
