Everyone else is richer than me.

Real life is even worse. That house my Dad bought right out of college for engineering is now $800,000. You would need 3 or 4 times a staring engineers pay to buy that today.
When he was in college a company paid him money to agree to accept a job after graduation.

My dad got his job with a high school diploma. While he was still working there, if I were to apply to the same company for the same job, they wanted a high specialized degree in radar technology, as well as military service because you were required to have a security clearance. Ironically the same job in 2022 pays less than it did in the 1990s despite the fact that it's much harder to get the same job. It kind of blows my mind.

Everyone has like 10+ Fungi Tunics for all their alts.

They probably 4 or 5 sitting in a bank somewhere.

Probably 300 or 200 Manastones, Elder Beads galore...multiple DE masks and AoNs.

The average Blue player probably has 1,000,000,000 in the bank.

Bunch of Bill Gates and Elon Musks running around.

Probably pay 7p for a port.

I want money for nothing and chicks for free, dammit

When the dementia kicks in and each time you play is like reading your favourite book again for the first time!

not that i'm complaining! thats what playing this game casual gets you.
I'm having fun tho and I think thats whats most important.


...although now that im sham is closing into late levels the cost of his spells and epic are certainly daunting. at least I wont run out of shit to do for a while in game lol.

sorry -- wanted to add that id be semi rich if I was smart and accepted the offer of a pair of elder beads for my fungi tunic back when elder beads were still dropping. I declined since my fungi was my most prized possession in game at the time...but just think how many fungi tunics I could have now if I'd accepted the trade. :P

I bought a pre-nerf CoS when it was still cheap.

It's performing better than my crypto portfolio.

I got in at 2017 as well.

If I made the same investment, but only 3 months earlier, I would be a multi-millionaire right now.

Same thing happened to my dad, but with penny stocks. He was going to put $100,000 down from the money he made selling his house, but mom stopped him at the last minute.

He ended up only putting $3000 in and 10x his money..

Lol

I bet mom slept on the couch for that one.
