Man is that a poor and uneducated idea. 

First black hats love nice little machines to park things at. Their private 
stash. Next a poorly secured box that has broadband is a nice target to 
install and stage things like remote denial of service attacks, or any other 
attacks. 

They really don't have much interest in his data or even a credit card. One 
stolen credit card usually sells for as low as 50 cents to a few bucks. Not 
their main target. When they go for CC's they want lots of them. Like what a 
company would keep. So from that part you're right.

But never make the mistake in thinking that you won't get hacked because you 
don't have big valuable secrets. If you think so you should start hanging out 
on various channels and 2600 meetings...

To make it all more interesting organized crime has been very active for a 
good while now.
