It is entirely possible that he knows what he is doing.

I haven't played the game, so I have no idea how the economy works in there. But say he manages to sell plots of land for $50 to, say, 200 people, that's $10.000 already back in his pocket. And apparently he can tax people for what they do on his island, so that's another steady albeit smaller income he's getting. It all really depends on how willing other people are to invest RL money into the game, and unless he really is ****ed in the head, he should have a decent outlook on that particular detail.
