And most people think they’ll somehow become famous - and they do, for a few days, until the story gets played out in the trade press and, at best, in the daily newspapers. If you’re good at self-promotion, you might even write a book about it, though the print run won’t make any money because it’s simply too small; you might land a few gigs, a few TV-Interviews, maybe even get paid. And then you disappear into oblivion through the back door of the press...
You become that sad figure who tells everyone, “Hey, I was the one who cracked the VMS back then.” The story that no one in your circle of acquaintances wants to hear anymore.
Eventually, you stop doing it... and die just like everyone else.
