HEY I made 25 cents an hour!
My first real job was pumping gas, changing oil and installing tires. I was a ripe old 13 by then though. Got all the way up to $3 an hour.

TL;DR: I work in information security. Bad guys pushed ransomware via a bug in device management software that affected very large customers and resulted in a claimed 1 million computers being encrypted.
wow, now that's a hack.

If I had stupid money to throw at a house, I'd want something like the house Dwayne Johnson has up for sale about 3 miles from where I live now.

Except I would want it on a lake somewhere.
i've worked in a house like that. i've never run out of breath walking from the parking area to the master bedroom in any other house, but that one, i needed a breather.

i honestly can't justify any house over 1 million. even if i had the money, i just don't see the point. i'd rather own a barn/warehouse that size. at least i could run go carts/cars indoors there.

but really, if i could afford a $1+ million house, i'd stay where i'm already at and retire to travel the world for a little while.

I kid you not... This fire damaged house sold for $1M in silicon valley. One million does not buy much in large parts of California.

I've seen the thumbnail for that clip a couple of times but I couldn't bring myself to click on it because I was fearing he would grab that plastic penis on the right.

I believe this one was Palo Alto, but there have been similar homes selling for $1M in parts of San Jose
