I suspect that the Martian economy will be independent from the Earth economy.

For example, the price of Martian gold would be different than Earth gold as it is difficult to move commodities between the planets and the ratio of Gold to Martian would be greater than the ratio of gold to earthling.

Since Mars will have a difficult economy then the first trips to Mars will produce a wild amount of Mars based wealth in its first decades.
