Depending on the way it is done, it can be like gambling. That's what is happening in Japan, where children would spent enormous amount of money to get (artificially) rare virtual items, and the government had to pass laws to restrict these kind of games. I don't know if it's better or worse than prostitution, but it can have a clear negative impact on the society for sure.
