No other way to put this. You are stupid.
You are wrong and stupid. If not, there would not be so many forums posts.
Look at the culture you are living in. Look at the World. Friggin most powerful country in the world is broke. People cannot afford things - look at interest rates. You have countries in Europe going bankrupt and others who have a 50% employment rate. Are you KIDDING ME?
Read, for the love of all that is good, READ the INTERNET and READ NEWS and LEARN about the ECONOMY.
Here it is for all you stupid little kids in High School and College or just out who think that $35 for an INTERNET ROBOT THAT YOU WILL LOSE IF THE SERVERS EVER GO DOWN OR SHUT OFF IS A GOOD DEAL - YOU KNOW NOTHING.
What's more? There IS NO SUCH THING AS DISPOSABLE INCOME!
The government, your school, the media, the CORPORATIONS are LYING to you. You have a FINITE amount of money you will make in your LIFE. YE * LE = LiE. (yearly earning * life expectancy = Life Earnings) Money spent on frivolous crap like overpriced internet robots is a waste of POTENTIAL earnings on that same money. You can use that money to generate income, invest, invest in yourself (higher education, job training, personal business) and the money spent on these robots are then COMPOUNDED by the time you are wasting here playing this game.
These robots are NOT GOOD DEALS. They are EXPENSIVE and they are utterly useless. There is really no way around it. Yes I feel this way and yes it bothers me that I spend as much time as I do, as well as lost capital prepping for this stupid game (expensive machine, internet, etc).
Anyways, I know you will not listen, but it makes ME feel better to post it which means it is worth it to ME. Nothing else matters. You will look back in 10 years and curse yourself for spending that much money on a GAME. Hell, it may only take a year when you realize PGI drove this falming bus into the ground MONTHS ago. You will need that cash later and will not have it, wondering where it went and you can only look as far as your own stupidity, greed and short attention spans to see where it went. Srsly. 6500mc = $30.
To the OP... guy.... bank that $225 you spend on virtual games, man. It is not worth it. Think of what you could have done with that cash. For me, that is electric, water, sewer, gym for both my girls, internet, spotify, netflix, gas for the month and juicing for the month. There is probably a little left over in there, too for lunches and whatever.
What did you get? A sparkly horse? Maybe a different colored plane?
What happens when they shut those games down or the game changes so much you do not like it? Money=wasted.
I'm done.
Well, you're either at work, and wasting your employers time, and the money they pay you, or you wasted some of your very valuable capital buying the Computer your using to type out the nonsense you type out above. You should have invested that monies sir.
