Virtual stock market connected with all SA-MP servers

What do you guys think about a virtual stock market? For example, a server gets affiliated with a virtual stock market, and it can view the market bonds, shareholdings, loss, profit, and much more with other servers affiliated with the virtual stock market. So;

1- Government
2- Houses
3- Restaurants
4- Lands

(examples)

All servers have that, and if they can affiliate with the stock market, they can get profit/loss depending on the value, and much more. But for that, all servers need to have all of it for it to be affiliated.

Before I daydream and make this a reality, is this actually possible?

cats cant script, and they certainly cant drive. I couldn't really see this happening, but its definitely possible

Having this on one server might be nice, but using the same market for several rp servers would quite probably ruin their economy. After some time there would be really poor and really rich servers, both unplayable with their original economy.

I believe it is a good idea, but it should be on a server to server basis where the owner/admin can decide the stock market, and maybe certain in game transactions affect it, if for example, 24/7 makes a lot profit that month from sales, the stock goes up, if they lose money, it goes down. Families should also be able to have their own stock. There should be a stock broker building/Stock exchange where you can buy, sell, trade stocks.

It can be poor and rich, depending on how many stocks the user sells/buys. Note that I'll be attempting to send invitations to servers who have a good playerbase, interested in delving in the depths of real life markets and where stock markets have a chance to be high or low, so it's not just like a 'register to be poor/rich/fag' type.

The server owner can decide about their stocks bond/ownage, what they want to sell and their impact on house sellings/buyings, government expenditures, land purchases and much more. And remember, companies can also have a share of stocks, or they can have bonds for their certified company

Families, you mean gangs?

The San Andreas Stock Exchange is virtual, and will be on a site. (SPOILERZ)

Its a good idea, i would like to see this in a server...

There is something similar to your idea on the Italian Mafia Roleplay server.

Thats not really what I meant. Its rather that the usually closed economies with a limited amount of money get money out of nowhere from this. Well calculated prices get obsolete, when players in average got twice the money they should have. Same about losing money with stocks. Money is transferred to other servers, and so disappears for the server economy. The total money of the server is reduced, and prices might be too high for the players. Less money also means less gain from stocks, so these servers will tend to become ever more poor.

Example: Someone buys a stock for 1000$ from a guy on another server, and later sells it to 500$. 500$ now disappeared to some other server.

So this wont work well for closed economies, only for open economies with all dynamic prices for everything.

Our server admins have to rights to set unlimited money for any player...so how can you say our server economy will get poor...
Plus if this get implemented on every server then the servers admin will be asked to limit their currency generation otherwise they would be removed from the system
