randomacct3847 | 6 years ago | on: Secret ‘dark web’ apps that are luring your children online

Pointless article. What apps are they even talking about? The only thing I could remotely think of if they’re talking about buying guns online is some dark net market linked to from a TOR browser app.

Honestly if a kid can not only figure out how to get to a dark net market but set up a bitcoin wallet, convert fiat to bitcoin, use PGP to decrypt/encrypt messages, and figure out how to get things delivered without their parents knowing then are they really just kids?

The opportunity to earn that much is available.

When I went to college only a few years ago the best paying jobs in consulting and banking were largely gated by what school you went to. Now students from “non-prestigious” schools or no formal schooling at all have a good chance at earning that much.

I would put DINKs in the same group, yes (double income no kids). Kids are a very big expense, even for high earners, and actually especially in pricey areas like Silicon Valley because housing near good schools commands an even higher premium than average for that area.

If you make the median tech salary of $300k and live on a fraction of that it doesn’t take that long to save $1m...

Point is there’s no magic to becoming a millionaire if you have minimal expenses and single.
