And it's a remarkably specious argument, because any of the people you're discussing could have thrown RL money at the game and blown away their zero-money effort.
I could walk to California from New York, but good thing "I have the option" to buy a plane ticket, or a car, etc. The existence of a guy who walked to California doesn't mean the guy with the private jet doesn't have a ridiculous advantage as far as getting places.
If the money didn't Viagra-fy (*) the character, no one would spend it.
(*): TM, someone else. Statistically, socially, and/or in other aspects. I recognize that not everyone values rewards equally, and that rewards need not have quantitative impact (skill bonuses, etc.) to be coveted.
