Need to Buy L$?
Have you looked into private L$ exchanges yet? Most of them offer "instant" L$ purchase or sale at competitive exchange rates. But the best rates will likely be found by using the bidding exchanges they offer. Here's how it works: The owners of businesses in Second Life have large volumes of L$ they get from customers and clients. They want to exchange those L$ for real money. So they will make you an offer for an exchange. You will get more L$ for your real money, and they get more real money for their L$. Win, win! The private exchanges are "middlemen" who facilitate the exchange for a small fee. If you need to buy or sell L$ you can probably get a much better exchange rate. It's worth looking into. Sign up and compare rates for your best deal. Here are a couple of private exchange options:VirWoX Virtual World Exchange

About Second Life:
Second Life is FREE. That seems to be the first question I get asked, so there's the answer. So with that out of the way, what is Second Life? I mean, you already have a good life, right?
Ever wanted to design clothing? Invent stuff? Build a mansion? Meet lots of new people? Fly? Teleport from one place to another like on Star Trek? Pretend to be someone completely different? You don't have to do any of those in Second Life. But... you can do any or all of those in Second Life if you want to. And yes, it really is free*. In fact, you can do a lot in Second Life without spending any money at all, including getting a lot of nice free stuff for your avatar like clothes and accessories. There are even ways you can earn money (don't plan to get rich.) Second Life really is a little bit of just about everything or anything you want it to be. So even if you do "have a life", I think you will find that having a Second Life can be a lot of fun!
Second Life membership is free and you don't have to give out a lot of personal information to sign up. You don't need a credit card, home address, phone, etc. No, this isn't an introductory limited time thing. It is straight up free! *Yes, you can spend a ton of money in SL if you want to. Guys like me who run SL stores would love that. But you can do just fine without spending anything. The best way to find out about it is to just sign up and spend an hour or two exploring! Click the ad below and give it a try. Yes, I get a very small commission if you sign up. So sign up already!!! :)
And of course, thank you!
PS... It really looks better than the ad image implies!
