Hello everyone who's reading this :D
I was thinking about economics in real life and realised I miss some economic sturctures on Roblox. That's why I thought of a Stock Market.
It should be based on being able to sell Shares of your place. Owning a Share of a Place would mean the equal percentage of the Tickets earned go to the Share owner. For example, if somebody owns 10% of the shares and the place gets visited 1,000 times, the Share owner should earn 100 Tickets and the Place owner (who built the place and has the other 90% of the Shares) should get 900 of the 1,000 Tickets.
Of course, the owners of the Shares set their own price when they're selling (some of) their Shares. This also means that it's possible one will never get his Shares back after he has sold them.
Shares should be able to get sold per 0.1%. The Place builder would set the maximum amount of Shares he'd like to sell and at what price. There should always be a ceiling amount of Shares a Place builder is able to sell; let's say he can't sell more than 80% of his Place. It wouldn't be fun if a place Builder got no Tickets anymore because he sold all his Shares.
As I'm thinking, the price of the Shares would raise when the Place gets visited alot; they'd go down if nobody visits the place anymore. It should be a working mechasnism.
It'd become an interesting part of earning money on Roblox. People getting richer (or poorer, of course) by buying and selling Shares, just like in real life. Plus (sorry if I sound like a teacher) it could be educational, to learn how it's like to be busy on a Stock Market. Even though there aren't many people who earn money this way themselves; banks do this mostly.

Last thing to add: it'd be nice if we had more types of currency. It'd increase the ability to speculate and thus earn money.

Tell me what you think, what could be better and if you like it. Thanks :D

People get Tickets for having people visited their place. That's why.

This should go on S&I [ Suggestions & Ideas ] but I think a Moderator could Re-Direct it. I support 9001%.

Well I agree with you (Above) and BTW if you know anything about networking, idk that the server can hold so many connections. Trust me their will be many bugs, but its a good idea, only if we start with a Beta. Think about it theres thousands of people joining Roblox each month or week so its going to take time and though to develop this idea. Just wondering, what happens if Roblox Stock Market goes in depression? XD

Agree with hokage. This idea will ONLY work if it is for NBCers only, otherwise we WONT have enough people who are using it.

If it's BC-Only it won't Work as BCers aren't much and Many BCers are little Kids.
I hope they release this Feature.

Very good idea, HOWEVER, it would be very hard to do for multiple reasons and it would also have tons of setbacks if you know anything with networking.

You'd need to get more tickets per visit.
