Real Cash On Virtual Land
If you think this whole pixel business is crazy, wait until you see what this dude did. Jon Jacob just spent $100,000 on a virtual space station in a game called “Project Entropia” (Teleporters map shown below). Earlier this year, David Storey spent $26,500 buying Treasure Island , a private piece of virtual land in Project Entropia.
I have never heard of this game, but I know for a fact that a lot of people are spending handsome cash on the virtual armors and weapons to advance in “World of WarCraft” or “Final Fantasy XI”. You can get 2 million Gils (currency in FF series) for 38 bucks and 500 pieces of World or WarCraft gold for $47.
I don’t exactly know how these businesses work by selling virtually nothing in exchange for real currency. But whoever gets the ins and outs of the business such as IGE.com can truly make themselves rich instantaneously without invest much.
Too many of us are working days and nights for a tiny paycheck while there are those creative thinkers breaking new grounds of economy everyday.
There are billions of possibilities on the Internet! I am curious to see what’s gonna happen 10 years from now. Maybe we would all have two different lives, one in a real world and another in a virtual reality world! Good God! Finally the guys can test the water to see how it is like to live as a woman!
