Haha I remember that time too well. Luckily I had a CC and I bought everything on the net back then and was so fascinated by it. Typing a number in and getting stuff. I ordered crap from the other side of the world, it was incredible. Yes, porn included. How could one resist that temptation back then, I was 12 or so ๐Ÿ˜

How did you obtain the CC and the money on it at 12??

Might've been 14, I don't really remember exactly. And it was the CC attached to my company's bank-acc so the bank wasn't that nitpicky. It were simpler times in many aspects. But the fascination of online-shopping only grew slightly less great in my 30s ๐Ÿ˜
