Hi guys. There seems to be such a broad range of good (and some not so good) ideas, jobs, experience and talents here. I have a general question of curiosity for you. A buddy of mine has recently been spending considerable amounts of time playing video games, earning real money and paying real money for various weapons, real estate, etc. He's gotten into it so much that he's devoting less and less time to his business (web development) and his usual social life. He's very excited about it, though, and keeps telling me how there's real opportunities for actual income. He mentions examples of people who own things (weapons, passes, real estate, etc.) that are worth thousands and swears he can make a decent living off of it. I may sound completely naive here--and for this, I am--but do you think that can work as a way of generating income to make a living? If that's a viable option, I would think that some here that are looking for ways to create capital could look into that. Does anyone have experience with gaming and generating a profit from it? Consistently? It seems shaky and lofty since it's trading intangible goods...then again, that's what the stock market is basically about. Would like to hear your two cents! Thanks.
