Default Second Life, anyone?

Does anyone here know about and play Second Life? It's a game where you live a second life, find and have a job, have a home and properties, earn virtual money and, best of all, convert that virtual money to real money. Has anyone here played that game and made some real money from it?

Wait, you can turn that virtual money into real money, i though it was just another game for lifeless people who don't have a life and just live behind there computers.

Nope, I hear people are real making money off the game. A friend who plays the game told me about two months ago that she has indeed started making money from a fashion store she established in Second Life's virtual community. The in-game currency is called Linden Dollars and is convertible to US dollars. Have a look at this:

Hey, Jak, if you have design skills, like if you're good at Photoshop, you could be doing good in Second Life. That's one of the skills my friend told me one could really make money off the game. Designers are in high demand to create in-game high fashion clothing. I wish I knew my way around graphic design...

I don't really exactly know what you mean, are you implying that you can photoshop your own fashion into the game?

Even then, aren't there other skills that can help you ingame, otherwhise the game is indeed "second life".
It's simply the same as reall life, can't do it in reall nor ingame.

There you go with another pointless post.

Lol, I should really start leaving him alone.

Anyways, I tried to play second life. I always got a stupid error.
I'm not sure, but my Uncle is HOOKED on it.

He's got this girlfriend and everything.

It's actually kind of sad. Everytime I walk in, I'll catch him at some club with the same girl dancing like a Hawaiian babe on a poll.

Well if he makes his money ingame, that means that game is his full time job.

Fashion is hot in Second Life. If you're good at Photoshop, and is very creative, you could excel in fashion designing and sell your designs (clothes, jeans, shoes, swim wear, bags, jewelries, you name it) and make good money.

You can also do architectural designs for homes, office, malls, clubs, etc. Actually, you can do anything you want in-game and earn some money here and there. You can work as a bartender, bouncer, lawyer, priest, clerk, police, hooker, drug dealer, the list could go on and on...

Probably your uncle owns the club or could be a string of clubs he owns. Or he could just be hanging out there with friends or business associates. That's what my friend does most of the time. She's engaged in the sale of real properties in-game.
