Why Buy a Q1 House

Day 2,574, 12:35 • Published in USA Argentina • by what4

Homeless in eUSA asks: I have lived my entire eLife on the eStreets what for would I need a house?

The 2 main reasons to get a house are:
1) More energy to fight
2) Working Overtime (details at bottom)

At current market prices and wages only a Q1 house can pay for itself from overtime work.

At time of writing this article:
The market price for a Q1 House is ~267 and
The market wage is ~53.75 or 47.3 after taxes

So after taxes pay for the week would be 331.1 which more than covers the cost of the Q1 House.

So Homeless in eUSA you definitely should buy a Q1 House if you have a job paying market wage. Other Qx houses are more expensive and are not fully paid for with overtime pay (e.g. Q2 houses have market price of ~450 which would only be partially offset by the 331.1 of overtime pay)

If you work in a commune, you should ask if the commune would pay you for overtime work.

All houses have 168 hr duration (one week), they can be activated and deactivated. For each hour activated you earn 1 overtime ticker. It takes 24 overtime tickets to work overtime. So if you keep a Qx house active for a fool week you will get 168 overtime tickets that will allow you to work overtime 7 times. If you have differ Q houses (e.g. Q1 & Q2) then both will earn overtime tickets.
