Then I thought, hey, if I just went to my real job for 2.5 hours I could buy 1000 GC. That would give me my weekend back and I wouldn't burn out on racing. The point is, this game still sucks the life out of you, even with double fame! Absolutely right.. Tho I have not spent real money on the game myself yet, I do not understand the 'purists' who might advocate never ending farming, all in pursuit of being the RR3 vestal virgins:) The personal time cost is humangous.. Paying supports the developers, and to people like you (on a great wage) it is not a big cost when compared to the time saved (even if you'll probably waste that saved time doing other meaningless things:)

Couldn't agree more, I get paid really well but that's because I work in the IT industry. I have farmed extensively though because the cost of gold is way too high. However, I did buy 2000GC at Christmas because £15 was a reasonable cost for 1000GC and £30 is a reasonable cost for a game I've had three years worth of time wasting out of. Another sale like that and I'd buy the gold and hit 100%. It is ridiculous that I still need 1300GC to complete the last 17 races.
