I expect this to become a reality. I know a few people who derive all their pleasure and entertainment from the virtual world. One such person (my wife's cousin) explicitly told me that all he wants in life is to work as little as possible to earn just enough to sustain himself while he spends the rest of his waking hours playing games. His parents are frustrated and mad as hell, but are also very wealthy. Last I checked they were basically trying to set him up with a mostly automated business to sustain his lifestyle in perpetuity.
