[Subsidy] Everyone a House!

Day 3,949, 05:47 Published in Netherlands Netherlands by Ministerie van Economische Zak

Dear citizens of the eNetherlands,
The Government (MDSanderon I) has promised to introduce programs that reward and motivate you, the citizens. With the recent spike in income due to a so-called Concession Deal with Iran it's time to deliver on such promises. As a first step in a long road to maximizing our potential to the fullest, The Ministry of Finance in cooperation with the Ministry of Defence are introducing a one-time subsidy for Housing. We've noticed many eDutch citizens still don't use Housing on a regular basis, while there are numerous benefits in using it! As for that reason the eNetherlands will offer you an opportunity to receive an one-time 1000cc subsidy.


Why Housing?
Owning a House (specifically a Quality 1) has several benefits. It increases your recoverable energy (the maximum amount of energy you can store) therefore giving one the opportunity to use all the gained energy efficiently. No more losing energy during your healthy sleep! In case of being a resident of a so-called 'residency' it adds even more benefits: Each activated Quality of Housing gives you +2 Energy Recovery every 6 minutes. It will also extend the durability of your house: Instead of the ordinary 7 days a House stays active, it will gain you more or less another day on top of that!

Lastly - and why this is a one-time subsidy only - you actually earn money by purchasing a Q1 House! Every active house grants you with 1 Overtime Point an hour. With 24 Overtime Points you can work an additional time and gain another salary. To illustrate this please consult the following basic calculation (numbers may slightly vary depending on the market):

Cost of Q1 House on eNL Market: +-3400
Daily Salary in eNL: +-520
[Note that prices/wages in eNL are generally worse than abroad]

With a Q1 House you can work twice a day so by buying an house you can potentially get 3640 extra a week - netting you a profit of 140 (Buying Houses abroad and/or working abroad will heavily increase this, though). The eNetherlands offers an one-time grant of 1000cc to motivate you to buy such an House and try it out for yourself. All with the intention that the benefits will be shown and (hopefully) continue using them. Which does not only help yourself financially and on the battlefield, but helps the potential of our entire nation as well.

Great! How do I apply?
By commenting on this article showing your interest or by messaging either Janty F or NoTie112 you can apply for this Grant after having bought a Q1 House and activated it. If you have a residency we can check whether or not you did; in case of not having a residency you will need to provide adequate proof (f.e. a screenshot). We will also check whether or not you're an eDutch citizen and have reached Level 20. The handing out of Grants will be noted down in a separate Google Document to ensure transparency and avoid double applications. Eventually the intention is to put this down in 'law' to ensure continuity.
