Second Life (SL) is an online community with its own currency, financial exchange and retail market.
Using examples from businesses run wholly within SL, and those from the real world that are relocating to SL, we will explore some of the answers to the following questions:
Who's making money here and how are they doing it?
What are the best investments?
Is there a financial return for educators?
The Linden dollar 'L$' - conversion to real £££ profits
Buying land
Property development
Shops and retail
Service provider or employer
Jobs
In world, real world or both?
SL millionaires and how they got there
