Maybe it has to do with the purpose of this reality? It's not a sterile sandbox. The desire to accumulate money is a) the symptom of a high entropy, low quality consciousness with a weak signal/noise ratio (i.e. less potent) and b) not in accord with the purpose of this reality.

Clearly you as a software engineer would be able to implement a virtual reality with a certain purpose that features a mechanism which creates a bias towards a certain outcome? The desired outcome in our case is high quality consciousness which is trustworthy enough in order to be able to interact with a larger and less restrictive reality (causality and space-time are implementation based restrictions within this virtual reality just like the amount of pixels you can jump in Super Mario Land represents an implementation based restriction) and the wish to become rich is not a sign of a high quality, ego- and fearless, trustworthy consciousness.

You just have to accept the possibility that this in fact is a virtual training environment for consciousness - "created" by evolution - just like World of Warcraft represents a virtual training (or rather an entertainment) environment - just one level lower in the consciousness fractal and less sophisticated. Just wait until we will have self-evolving, procedurally created games based on a probabilistic game engine ... then the analogy will become even clearer.

1. If this works, then why aren't you rich?
