WHAT A TOOL!!!

I came across this article and had a WTF moment.

Now as the story goes, this guy in Australia is involved with one of those Online worlds (I'm not going to be specific because I don't know a thing about them or how they work. From what I have read they are like SIMS... correct me if I'm wrong).

Anyway, people pay $15 a month to play on this thing and can gain "credits" through working and some other weird stuff. Well, this guys character was the head of some EBank and he took virtual money from this bank 200 billion to be specific. He took his credits and went offline to sell his fake money for real money... I know it gets better though.

So he sells this fake cash for real cash. $5100 to be exact. The people buying the fake money are people that don't want to play the game to earn these credits.

Here is where the fun starts and I'm going to quote the article here:

"He said a spam email for a black market website that traded online money for real cash popped up on his screen, prompting him to exchange the virtual cash for real money to cover a deposit on his house and expenses related to his son's medical problems."

Okay, why are you spending so much time playing a game when you have a son with MEDICAL PROBLEMS and a deposit on your house?

I don't understand what makes some people tick.
