This idea has been sitting in my head for a while. What if they created a Gaian stock market? That way, everyone could be in touch with the economy and make enough gold to buy the items that they want. Plus, it's a good way to teach young people life skills. 3nodding
Maybe if you would explain your idea, this would be more topic worthy.

Well, I'm not quite sure how the stock market really works, since I just happen to be one of the young people I was referring to. I think it'd be really nice if we had things that we could invest our gold in though, so that it'd make those hard to get items a lot easier to get.

Guaaah... I don't know anything! gonk

The stock market isn't anything like the Gaian market place. That much I do know.
I understand what she means just fine smile

Yeah it would be similar to the marketplace - buying and selling items for profit is kinda like working the stock market. But I imagine stock market prices would fluctuate a lot more than marketplace prices, and everyone would pay one price, rather than hunting for bargains.

Just like the marketplace tho, it wouldn't be a surefire way of earning gold. For every person who makes a profit, there is someone who makes a loss.
Nah, too many poeple would ride the market and what companies do we have to invest in? It was a good idea though...

*nods* Exactly. A stock market would sort of be like Neopets. If you wanted an up-to-date economy, visit the Exchange. O:

we, right now, kinda have a stock-market thing with the Casino Tickets.
Gaia admins are not putting a value on them, but rather want us, the users to make our own value. That's why, when it started, everyone was in a buying frenzy. Some selling 1000 tickets for 20k or more.. now it's leveling out. Pretty soon people are going to sell low, rather than the aforementioned "buy high"

3nodding I agree. That's probably about the closest thing to the stock market gaia has.
