                                                 The life of a Chinese Gold Farmer

        From reading the article and watching the video we get an idea of what the Chinese do for a living. They get a place to live in with several other people and they get to play video games all night and most of the shifts are 12 hours long. The fact that they live in a poor environment and some of them don't wear a shirt. We assume that the reason they don't wear a shirt its because it gets hot because of all of the computers running for so long. One of the Chinese in the video said that even if they don't make money that they are having fun playing with others. Reading the article made me realize what people from other countries do for a living and the sacrifices they make.
        What I learned from the article is the most profitable game in history is World of War Craft they make a billion a year in subscriptions. I had no idea a lot of people played online games until now and its very surprising to getting information about it. What the farmers don't like doing is getting rid of players because it takes time to get back on the same level. The farmers have about 40 people playing 20 in the day and 20 in the night.
