I'm a financial failure in video games.

[magnetaress]

No matter how hard I try i just cant put in the work get good gear/make plat/gold etc

Even tho wow has automated programs that just print money for u off of the AH after u sign over your account details still cant

all 25 years I have been playing these games I have never made more than pennies on any of my characters.

And even now I don't even remember my login codes so I maybe at best have like 1kpp somewhere. Also half my gear is borrowed from other ppls it would be wrong of me to sell it. And I tend to lose money doing that too.

Who else is like this and just *boggles* at the ppl with over a mil pp?

I want to be clear i'm not complaining i'm kinda actually proud of the fact that I can't seem to ever break even from crafting banded

Poor player thread

If you're poor in video games, you're probably successful in real life.

And vice versa too.

The richest person on P99 is probably a wet slug of a human being.

He's probably more like a company CEO or politician.

The most succesful should be the devs who have the biggest headstart on everybody and all the inside information.

Honestly I'd just quietly summon items and hit 60 some months after the server launched if I was a dev.

Nothing too powerful. Rare or outlandish tho

Just do what i did. sacrificed my higher lvl toons to 45. made like 50k. then started a new twink character . fresh start with lots of money

[magnetaress]

Lately I've consistently just been vendor trashing gems. I hit almost 2k. Back down to like 850 tho after buying some spells.

I think the trick is having an established character that doesn't need stuff like spells or gear. And actually playing said character.

Selling a few high ticket big plat items over the course of a year probably doesn't hurt either.

Right now I'm trying to gear and spellup 3 characters and am already making plans for several alts. This is definitely why I never have piles of plat or a dragon hoard of high value items for barter.
