For me it's not the cost involved as my Sims are always prosperous but it's trying to create new, vibrant and functional community lots. For example roller/ice rinks and bowling alleys with food stalls, etc. Some of my festivals in the City Living world are bugged and crash on arrival. Newcrest doesn't have that problem so I've tried to give that a similar vibe as well as using up space and bringing life into an otherwise basic world. As well as that, staff don't always appear when hired and the fee is paid.
