There are many ways you can earn money in SL...I've used it in the past,but haven't been in there in Months,as I found it too time consuming! You can use your creative abilities "In World" to "Invent" things,create art,design and sell everything others will buy from clothing to houses,cars,aircraft,even new avatars..You can set up a business,push your online business downlines,buy,sell,and rent SL property...There are clubs that offer "Dance Competitions" with "cash" prizes..the SL currency is known as the "Linden" ($L) for Linden Labs,the group who set up SL..the Linden has a currency exchange rate against the USD,so money you earn can be converted to "Real" money quite easily..You can use Paypal to fund your Linden account,and transfer them out again..While I was still using SL,I read of someone who'd become a Dollar Millionaire mainly from real estate and housing transactions...good luck!

This avatar picture I'm using is Me in SL Checking out a Statue while exploring an area that I enjoyed hanging out in! I think it would be accurate to say,to earn money in SL,You'd need to put a fair bit of time and effort in for it to be worthwhile..You can join for free and explore the "World",take part in money making activities and "earn" enough to keep you going on a day to day basis..Some places GIVE you money for nothing,even just sitting down on a chair for some time..as You don't need to eat,drink,sleep or even shower in SL,You don't need to have a place to stay where you do these things..but if you find a place to hang out that you like,you usually "tip" bar staff,dancers,DJ's,or anyone providing a service you'd use..You can also go in as a monthly subscriber,get title to a piece of "land",build on it,set up or go into partnership in a business in whatever line of work you can think of..As a subscriber,your fees paid each month covers $L "Pocket Money" to use,but if you want to make money,a business of some sort would be best..There are pitfalls too..while I was there,hackers had apparently created a "package" that when opened by you would drain your account...best not to open something given to you by someone you don't know or trust..

I have never heard of Second Life either. Apparently there are alot of sites out there, that I have never heard of. I used to be on the computer all the time, but lately I am so busy running around with the kids..I get on the computer now, and I am lost. I will have to check this site out.

One of those games where you walk around with your person and do certain things you like? I wouldn't think that second life is one of those games that you can earn money from, just a game where you can have fun and hang out. I could be wrong, but I seriously doubt it myself.
