Never spend ANY money on games.
Ok I'm taking the kid gloves off and giving it to you straight.
These games are a form of psychological war between developers and players
The aim of the developer is to entice you to buy their chips, packages etc etc to feed your ego.
Even if you become the player with the most of everything in the game, if you spend money, you have LOST!
Your adversary in the game is not other players, but the game developers themselves!
The real fun in the game is how to beat the developer without spending anything.
So what if you lose everything, just start another free account!
NOBODY cares.
So don't waste your money trying to impress others in the game, just have fun at the developer's expense and be the real WINNER!
