I agree; if one makes RR3 his unpaid full-time job, running EK or EC for 1 or 2 hours a day to level up, then playing team events for 24 hours in a row to make it to the gold-earning positions, plus running the LTS and watching the ads, then yes, it pays off.

But then 1) the player must have very wealthy parents (some of us rather have jobs and families to look after, and even a dog), 2) got to marry a very rich widow, 3) won the lottery jackpot, or 4) lives out of public allowances. And whichever of these 4 options comes with a non-existing social life.

I won't complain since my GC account was left with just under 1.4K after the Christmas sales and now it's back to 2.3K, but the ever-increasing time investment that FM demands from the players is a toll that not many can afford.
