In what ways has your MMO playing as a young person been predictive of your adult life?

[StaceyPowers]

If you played MMOs when you were young, has your real life followed suit with your in-game experiences?

For example, I was poor in MUDs. I am now poor IRL.

Your in-game situation doesn't predict whether you'll be successful or a failure. It's how you approach life that determines that.

That was sort of my point. In both cases, I gave trust and loyalty to the wrong people, and it didn't help me get ahead.

Oh okay - I did miss the point.
