I remember a time when Ultima Online gold had an exchange rate of $50/1 mill gp. Thats about 30 times better than the exchange rate for Turkish lira. As for buying large houses or castles, I've seen a well placed house being sold for $500.

I think this has very interesting possibilities. How about investing in property and currency online early in the games development, letting the game peak and flogging it off? Or for international criminals using it for money laundering? I think it's fantastic. While ever so slightly depressing.
