It's easy, there are several ways to do it. The easiest is to just go to some event and ask the host if they know if their manager is hiring. You can get a job doing just about anything on SL, simply use the search look up an event and go there to ask about employment.

Another way is to find something you are good at and make a business out of it. You can make just about anything and I guarentee there will be someone willing to buy it. Making things can include building houses, clothing, making shapes, skins, jewerly, scripting and a ton of other stuff I can't think of right now.

The third way to make some money is to go to games and win them. Games like Slingo, Tringo, Pizza, 21 tend to pay really well to the winner and usually the prize pot is pure donation, meaning they don't require you to pay in. The only draw back is that you have to be really good to win.

The last way, and the way that I highly recommend avoiding would be to buy the money from SL or a SL related website. I have always found this to be a very expensive trap. And considering that SL is the only game I have ever played that offers you several different ways to make money I wouldn't suggest actually buying it.

Like most games, being a newbie is always hard on the virtual pocketbook, you just have to hang in there, find your niche and soon you will not have to ever worry about money.

Oh and I thought that it was a joke too but I figured what the heck... I'm sure other people wonder the same thing and just don't feel like asking!

This would be a valid question if you were actually a newbie. The fact that you aren't combined with your tone suggests that you are more interested in making fun of them instead.

Those that just got here, please read the sticky - in addition to the normal guidelines, the mods will be taking a zero-tolerence approach to this sort of thing in this particular forum.

Hey I thought the Wanna make out post was the first silly post!
Besides what he asked is a legit question from many newbies so maybe one will read it!
