The Virtual Economy

How familiar are you with the Virtual Economy? Think: a character in the online game World Of Warcraft that can sell for thousands of dollars. Think: Over 34 000 parcels of land sold in a single city to buyers globally. This land, incidentally, does not exist… except in a newly constructed virtual city. Now… you may be thinking: these have to be the most elaborate scams ever. You may be correct… or you may need to challenge your thinking into accepting that these are legitimate business ventures. If they are indeed the latter, then imagine the opportunities that await our next generation.
