Project Entropia
Have you guys ever seen this?

http://www.entropiauniverse.com/en/rich/5000.html

"With the dramatic increase of U.S. university tuition fees, it is no wonder that students are finding every way to make ends meet. A great example is a 17-year-old from Durango, Colorado who was able to accumulate over $35,000 by playing in the rapidly growing virtual world of Entropia Universe. This online virtual universe designed by Swedish software company MindArk, has a unique "Real Cash Economy" (RCE), in which Entropia Universe currency (PED or Project Entropia Dollar) can be redeemed back into real world funds through a fixed exchange rate with the US dollar, where 10 PED = $1 USD."

I have been playing lately - interesting how the economy works.
