It really shouldn't come as a surprise to anyone that money can be made on just about anything. It's what makes the world go 'round, after all.
My anecdote: I had a girlfriend that I met while playing a MUD. I wasn't earning enough money to cover my own rent and food, and I let her move in with me to get her out of a bad situation. Long story short, she didn't (couldn't?) get a job, I couldn't afford to support us both, and I soon told her she had to leave. She managed to earn enough money from selling MUD items to buy her bus tickets and leave.
(I sound like a heartless SOB above because I am. I still can't figure out how I could have made it work, and I still feel bad for doing what I did. So no need to tell me how heartless I am. I get it.)
