Same. I mean, it's not like I just sold a town and lost the money in lotto about 4 minutes after I got paid for the town. Pff...
15k to my ranks 360k on a donation feature rougly 1 mil between buying four towns, around 5 or 6 plots, building materials, paying builders for work and general screwing around witt about 40k of that lost to scammers over time.
I just buy ore and mine it for the drops. Then I sell the drops and the resulting experience points for a profit.
Portals and warps cost as much as or more than towns... at 85k+ for a town and 75k for portal and 40k for warp, its a lot. I also spend about $100,000 or more a week on labor.
Well lately i've been buying lots of tools maxed out tools and armour then going "hey how about i go on the forums!" Well that sounds like a good idea but then i'm underwater and kill myself and lose all my tools, chainmail, ect.
Well, just to prove, I lost a ton of money in lotto yesterday, but I don't care! \o/ Now, just to brag, I spend my money on melon swords, I'm a bigshot now, I have 2 of them!
