Random Access Memories

I was curious the other day about how many people in Secondlife make a profit off their work in that virtual world.

This is the best data I could come up with based on the # of Linden Dollars that LL says are left on the market after sinks, and a rough guess that 20,000 users actually interact with the economy.

I also had no basis for distribution of wealth, so I used the list of transactions by value. (If anyone has any better data i’m listening)

# of users - USD Yearly Net (After sinks)
7509 - 296.68
3495 - 637.20
3314 - 672.43
2460 - 905.61
1647 - 1,351.40
718 -- 3,095.93
692 -- 3,214.08
129 -- 17,160.62
32 --- 68,979.92
4 ---- 567,489.68
1 ---- 1,564,767.87

(No, that 1 making 1.5 mil is not Anshe, it’s just how the formula came out)
