I had some considerations of getting into white hat hacking. I'd have enough motivation to become somewhat proficient in a few years,maybe even very good in a decade. But then I look at the rewards for vulnerability discovery and I think what the hell??? If I'd spend years honing my skills and someone would offer me a few grand for something that could potentially cost them millions,I don't think I'd manage not to sell it for the highest bidder. This is like a gig economy but for infosec.
