When you say make a living

[When you say make a living]

or make money, do you mean in game? Or money you can use in real life?

 

[My List of Ideas]

Activities
Horseback riding with a lot of customization, such as saddles, bridals, boots, and gear.
The ability to earn real money selling clothes and things you build like in Second Life (probably in the non robbery sections).
Being able to create or build anything and have as much land or space as you want. Second life's land costs way too much for people who want to build and immerse themselves in their own world.  The ability to upgrade your property acreage would be nice as well.
Integrating the ability to use 3d modeling software to make things, such as blender, maya, or zbrush.
Snorkeling
Collect tropical fish and either eat them, sell them, or put them in your aquarium.
Find rare artifacts and fossils underground that you can put in a museum, in your home, or sell for money.
Find and collect materials for farming and building.
Build your own dream home.
