If he is somehow able to make money on this, more power to him, but it says a lot about our society that people are willing to waste significant money on this type of entertainment.

This dude made his money back.
Now somebody is building a $100,000 space station in Project Entopia. He expects to make $20k month off the venture

hah, i am proven right.
took him what, 11months to earn back his ENTIRE investment. And now he's got a revenue generating property for the life of the game.
The space station project with Dinosaur Hunting tours sounds hype as heck to me!

These guys better hope that whoever is hosting this stuff has backups. Otherwise it could all go poof!

I was looking up the game. I wonder why is this not more popular than the Sims? Sounds way more interesting.
Man I want to get more into this...are there world leaders? Can there ever be wars? That would be sweet.
Anyone here play?

its worth what ppl are willing to pay for it. like any other fad -- baseball cards, pokemon cards, random crap thats in demand at the time, nowadays for some its virtual rpg items. Its all great until no one plays the game anymore and you've wasted all that money ( and time) on it
