11-year-old Mira Modi has a business you'd think wouldn't be possible, but is. She created a system for generating secure yet easy to remember passwords and has started to sell them for $2 each. Her business is called DiceWARE.

The result is a string of 5 words in non-sensical order. It's tough to crack and basically people are paying her for them.

Mira makes $12 per hour if she worked on passwords full time.
