We have witnessed many cases where individuals turn into millionaires by night with the help of various job opportunities on the internet, in this Article a young lady based in Pittsburgh reveals how her 16-year-old son made $1,000 to purchase a laptop. Going forward she added that, she made sure she seized all his electronics and sat him down till he revealed where he had the money for the purchase. Read her narration below;
“A laptop arrived at my house addressed to my 16yo
son. I didn't buy it. I know neither his dad nor my
girlfriend did. I sat the boy down. Took the
computer, and his phone said P'Il seize his desktop too
and ground him indefinitely until he said where he
got $1000. Video game skins.
Panic as a parent to see my child with crazy money, not knowing where he got it. I imagined drugs, scamming, predators, etc. Turns out he's in the FIFTY BILLION DOLLAR gaming skins market. Showed me records of skins he bought with his allowance a year ago, sold at
triple value Son and I thank y all for encouraging his entrepreneurial spirit. I even gave him a small chance to keep learning about business and investments. For those insulting me and my parenting, well, opinions are like assholes- everybody has one”.
After her revelation, users took to the comments to also add their one cent to the conversation, a few of them are highlighted below;

“Seizing first, asking second is a weird way to do it but I'm glad he understands the world he lives in enough to foresee future gains”.

“No matter how much he makes, he should tell you
that he is buying a laptop. As long as he lives under your roof, he owes you that respect”.

“Yeah, but the dark side to it is that he could be getting accounts or skins that have been hacked and stolen. I know I got my account back that someone had stolen. I could imagine the person who purchased it lost their money. I pray that he is getting the skins legitimately”.

“That's awesome. It's huge. Wait till these skins become NFTs that port in and out of different metaverses. Then profitability will increase drastically”.

“seeing parents discover the online skin market industry (assuming csgo) for the first time is funny, might seem like a joke but the lad played the system in his favor, and to that, I say great work”.
