different kettle of fish because there is no goal to be obtained. It’s a
“user-created” “virtual life”.
You can trade real estate, design clothing,
jewelry and accessories, manage events, create avatar shapes and skins,
photography, be a breedable pet manufacturer, a graphic artist, a scripter, own
a club and so much more. What drives entrepreneurship in SL is that you can
retain the copyright for your in-world creations.

with other, you can with a bit of compensation for your efforts. All you need
to have is an establishment where your work can be made available. People also
have to know that you have a product that is worth their while. Once you have your creations, establishment
and marketing plan in place, your business in second life should takes off.

much possible with a little elbow grease and a few business tactics to get the
