[MoE] - Minister of Education - How to get&spend Gold
Utat
eRepublik Gold is a fictional currency used in the eRepublik World. You can spend it to get additional features within the game.
How to get gold
You will gain Gold by the following ways
- Win a medal (5 Gold per medal)
- Raise your experience level (1 Gold per level)
- Invest your real life money into the game (not the best idea in my opinion)
- Exchange your Local currency into the monetary market to gold
Gold is useful for the following things
- Buy a company
- Create a newspaper (2 Gold). Attention, you can’t remove a newspaper
- Use some training grounds
- Use Health pack (not the best idea for a young player too)
- Create a political party (40 Gold)
- Upgrade your company
If you are new, the best for you is to SAVE your gold. Strength training is a great investment and is MUCH better than everything else.
Why focus on Strength ??
A) You receive 5 Gold for every 250 points (Super Soldier medal)
B ) It is cumulative and necessary to become a stronger soldier to help your team
C) It will give you more rank points with each fight and make it
slightly easier to win a Battle Hero in your Division (low levels need less strength)
D) It pays for itself and offers long-term benefits
STRENGTH PRO-TIP 1: Upgrade your Free Training facility to Q3 ASAP, then the 0.19 Gold facility, then the 1.79 facility later on (only if you have a supply of Gold for investing in training!). The 1.49 Gold facility is the least efficient and should be upgraded the very last, if at all. Try to do your upgrades during a 45% off promo (which comes around every 2 months or so)
STRENGTH PRO-TIP 2: Keep 5 Gold in reserve so that you can always use 0.19 Gold Facility ~ it will cover some of its own costs when you receive the 5 Gold Super Soldier reward.
Having more Strength early on in lower Divisions (Div 1 & Div 2) may allow you to win Battle Hero medals that will bring in some extra Gold, too.
Enjoy !!!

Also, always try to do your upgrades during a 45% off promo (which comes around every 2 months or so?)
Thx for the add, I have update the tip 😁
Did you mean upgrade your training grounds to Q4?
My new view on the game and economics has upgrading all four training grounds to Q4 as the only worthwhile long term goal of what players should spend there money on. Yes, it'll take a long time to earn the 374 gold - you'd need 75 5-gold medals, if that's the only way you earn gold - but once you've saved that up (and an extra 53 gold for a 90% off training contract) then your training costs for all four maxed out training grounds is 6.53 gold a month (once super soldier medals are taken into account)!
Considering how much food and weapons you can buy with your hard-worker medal alone - currently, in Canada, enough for 26,875 Q1 food for 53,750 energy for an average of 1,791.66 energy per day for 30 days or 228 Q6 weapons for 1,368 hits for an average of 45.6 Q6 hits a day or a combination thereof (good enough for many players, though far from ideal but there's always MUs if you need help) - the rate of return on any gold invested in companies and the fact that this is, at it's heart, a crappy war game, I just can't recommend that people spend their gold on companies before they've maxed out their training grounds.
