Because my parents just emailed me saying "I see from our Observer that you can make loads of money from Second Life".
I just don't have the patience to read Sunday papers any more, personally; unless I was wanting to beat some large animal to death and didn't have anything suitably heavy around, I wouldn't bother, and that doesn't happen very often.
Can't see it on their website.

It pisses me off. I was talking off-hand with a 'Game Developement Student' (i.e. a future McDonalds employee) and mentioned that I'm on SecondLife.
He'd head of it.

I wanted to fall over laughing, but it was a tile floor and I would have injured myself.

From: someone Quote: I heard you can make alot of money on that. Maybe someone should mention to The Phil that people will continue to form this "misimpression" so long as he keeps repeating it. On second thought, as this fabrication is the only merit of SL that he's been spouting for the last year or so, it may cause him a bit of dismay to hear that it is laughably untrue. $$$  |
