First Short Paper Thesis

Topic: Advertisement, Marketing, Business and Economy
Thesis: The SL economic market functions much like real life in that Lindens are spent and earned for products or services rendered. Linden Labs monitors carefully the cash flow of Lindens in ratio to the number of new residents to curb inflation much like the Federal Reserve does for the US government. Business in SL is centered on the material and emotional needs or wants of the residents. In the SL virtual life spending money can be easy, making real dollars is quite possible and some may experience the feeling of needing to make your avatar bigger and better through buying your way up the social ladder.
