Gamer Bought A Virtual Land For 100K..

just last month Project Entropia player Jon Jacobs bought a virtual space station for a mere $100,000. Jacobs plans to turn the space station into a virtual resort ground that spawns dinosaur-like monsters.

So we’ve heard about someone buying World Of Warcraft Gold and Silver for real money, we heard about someone selling pixels and making tons of money out of it, is this the next big move in this world of hallucination?

Most of you would probably think that this guy is some idiot, but…look at this, someone who paid about $25,000 for a virtual land, got his money back, and can now start making real money, real profit.

Furthermore, here are Jacobs’ plans:

Jacobs will take a cut of the virtual resources that gamers will make selling the dinosaur hides and he estimates he will make about $20,000 a month from running this virtual service.

Now what do you think of that? Stephen Glicker from Gaming Steve actually raised a good point about if Blizzard decides to do the same with WoW, he says “the future is fun”, i must agree !
