Second Life
Hi all,
Anyone actually involved in second life?
Just been doing a bit of research around the site and there are lots of people making some substantial money from the site, may have to take a delve myself...

There was a girl who made a million on it buying and selling land, and then charging people to do the same for them! a developer in her second life.
I have looked at it, but it will be very time consuming!

I also read this:

About how few people are making money and how the site is really just acting like a pyramid scheme etc

Some of the stuff I am reading tends to indicate otherwise, some people are making upwards of $150k a year from the site!! Although it seems timing is the key..

I think ther isnt alot of room left on ther to gain enough land or assets to make any decent money. The people who are succesfull on there are doing it 24/7.
personaly id rather get a life.

I've also looked at it but after reading more about it and looking at what it takes to make that much money it really doesn't seem worth it. You'd be better off putting that time into running a real life company.
