About 300-330 million. It depends on the buyer.

It depends what you want, does it not? You don't mention what your goals are.
If selling play money is profitable for you at a a level you are happy with and you only care about profit, keep doing what you are doing.
If you want to make money long term and increase the amount you are making, which I would imagine is not possible selling play money, then switch to real money.
Only you know the answer.
Bankroll management is something you should definitely follow if you are wanting to build a bankroll without going busto.
I'd like to make enough money so I can my rent and have some extra meals...so that'd be like $500 a month.
But enough to get a better apartment would be sweet too. I only started winning a lot at play money in the last couple months (I broke even for a year because I hated folding). So maybe I can just keep doing that.
Does anybody do coaching? I think I could benefit a lot from someone who wins at small stakes (25NL to 50NL) watching a few of my sessions and telling me what to tweak)

Seriously though, people actually pay for play chips? Couldn't you just keep reloading them and selling them bit by bit?
Yeah it's for real. I thought about why people buy them...and I concluded that it's because people like feeling like "big ballers" and high stakes players. Since they can't throw around 100,000 real dollars, they instead will spend a 50 bucks and throw around 10 million play chips at the "high stakes" play money table.
Sounds weird, but it's true. There are ALWAYS people asking to buy.

To address your question, if you're looking for less variance, playing HU isn't the way to go.
Yeah. I feel like HU suits me more because I can watch and adjust to people...then again maybe I should try multitabling and just playing very very standard raise-cbet-fold type poker and seeing how I do. I'm confused, too many options.

A couple people do. You can look them up or do a Find Player...they'll be at one type of table one day then at the other the next day. I do the same thing lately.
