How Much are you Actually Spending In Terms of RL Money?
Jelly9473
So I understand not everyone buys gold and a lot of people don't...I can't blame you. I got suckered in to the extra storage scheme :/
Anyway, I thought it would be interesting to find out in terms of Gold/RL USD how much it would cost to use a booster, fight, run for Party President and Create a company...or 3.
All of my "calculations" Will be in terms of the 25 gold for $13.12 RL-USD.
Using this purchase means that 1 gold = 0.52 Rl-USD
To make things easier...1 gold = 50 cents RL-USD 😛
That means in terms of boosters....
Boot Camp costs about a $0.10
Caesar costs about $0.75
Napoleon costs about $0.90
Fighting
A 10 Wellness Boost = $0.25 (a quarter)
A Rocket costs $0.50
A 5 Q1 foods (10 Wellness) on the US market at 0.96 ingame USD = $0.05
100 Wellness = $0.50
300 Wellness = $1.50
Q1 Weapon (Rough average of all 4 weapons) valued at 0.14 g/7 ingame USD on the US market = $0.05
Q5 Weapon (Rough average of all 4 weapons) valued at 1.26 gold/63 ingame USD = $0.63
How much do you spend Fighting?
Personally, I normally fight with my 300 wellness (barehanded) and train using Caesar, or, Boot Camp
😛
1.50 + 0.75 = $2.25 a day
This may vary for others...of course, I know it does
😛
To Run for Party President costs 2 gold, or $1 RL-USD
Companies
Now it costs 40 gold to establish a company. To create a company now costs $20 RL USD, To buy a license costs 20 gold or $10 USD
A Q2 company costs 40g + 20g Upgrade Charge = 60 gold = $30 RL USD
Q3 = 60 gold + 50 110 gold = $55
Q4 = 110 gold + 100= 210 = $105
Q5 = 210 gold + 200 = 410 gold = $205
The total cost of creating a company, and upgrading it to Q5 would be $205
Of course, I'm hoping that if someone is going to make a Q5 company their more willing to pay for the "Best Offer" charge which would save them a little bit of dough...or at the minimum that they hire a secretary

I don't buy gold and I do pretty well, just save up ur treasure maps to buy a company cheap off the market and make sure you run it well and then you can become an upper-tier middle class citizen.
not including the amount of wasted time you could have used to develop your talents which in turn could produce money
Curious and interesting.
v+s

Well said trisno - Money can be recovered, time lost is irrecoverable, making it the isngle most valuable resource spent needlessly ... 🙂
Math error on the Boot Camp booster calculation.
Should be $0.10, not $0.01.
Thank you Dell 😃 Your the only person to spot it lol
V+S. I've been thinking about doing an article on this for the longest time. The money doesn't seem like much, but it adds up after a while.
Very Informative
Haven't bought any gold and own 2 Grain companies and 3 Orgs. 😛
Joe is Right!
3 USD a day is having a serious impact on my game play! I could buy 3 wellness worth of food for that! What could the US Government do that could POSSIBLY justify denying me 3 wellness a day?!?
Voted. Good research.
gimme gold 🙂
Good work.
6 wellness, Nicholas Ryan.
I forgot to mention that this is an awesome breakdown of costs.
why would anyone spend money when they can get anything in this game for free, and with just a little bit of effort? I believe it's more fun to do it without 'cheating'
thanks for pointing
Caesar costs about $0.75
Napoleon costs about $0.90
would you mind explaining me why you use the caesar booster instead of napoleon. slightly cheaper but only half the effect.
oh and i spend 0.19 gold per day

x2 HARD
fooking gov'ment.. keeping me down 3 wellness a day!
WOW! You mean some people spend real money on this game???
I would/will never...
Spending real life money for this game is the single most dividing thing in this game. All of the idiots (elite) who have put gold on their plastic think that because they were stupid enough to charge a pitiful amount of gold at an average credit card rate of from 15% to 25% that they should get favorable treatment. Also, how did this go from a discussion about game cost to taxes?
Lol. I'd rather wipe my butt with my money than spend it on eRepublik! 🙂
