How is second life a "pyramid" scheme.
It is used by colleges for research and teaching, I highly doubt that Harvard, USC @ Berkley, Ohio U, or Cal state would be involved in such schemes. My neighbor is going for her doctorate and does research and teaches classes within second life. It is not solely geared for educational purposes. (it's a whole new world)
There is little or no investment to play this game if you do it right. If you have an x box 360 or any other "on line" gaming, you spend more per month on subscriptions for these as you would to get started in second life.
My wife has learned quite a bit more about design and graphics for nothing more than the price of new video game. (or less if you do it right) and now monthly subscription fees
As for your second statement, I agree, my first life is busy enough that second life doesn't appeal to me that much
