An unhackable system is like saying an invincible building.
They both will never exist with the proper 'adversary'.

I'm confused at your reply. Did you think I suggested something might be unhackable? Because I suggested that nothing is unhackable.

Does it have to be useful?
On a more serious note, similarly to being able to break RSA in ‘little’ time, having that kind of skill would not result in financial wealth but a huge risk to your physical and mental/emotional well-being. Imagine who would come knocking on your door (assuming they won’t straight out abduct you), and trying to tell them no.
Right. But there's a saying. "Nothing in unhackable". There in lies the problem. If you can build an unhackable system you literally can get whatever salary you want. If you can convince someone that such a thing is possible. But I'm pretty sure that'd count as fraud.
