Re: Prices of lots in Briny Heights
Back when I earned the millions of simoleons, there were no extra plots available. I had been earning over 11k a day and spending it on clearing my original lot. Once the lot was clear, I started having money, mostly because I was earning the same but wasn't spending it on land anymore.
Yes, if you get extra lots, you get extra sims. I understand that each lot can hold 12 sims (4 playable and 8 others)
Another bonus to having extra land is that you can move some of the bonus items out of your main house into one of the other houses and all houses still get the bonus. (For example, you can move the lamp, dresser or bathrobe to the new house and both houses get the bonus.). This helps if your main house is getting crowded with items and you want to make room for more 75 point party items but don't want to lose the bonus by putting bonus items into storage. Holding bonus items is really the main way I use my extra house. (I have 1 extra house and am in the process of clearing land in the new bigger lot).
The nice thing about this game is that you can work it as quickly or as slowly as you want and still have fun. You won't miss out just because you take it more slowly. You can also do it without any real money, or you can spend a little money if you want to. I usually get an iTunes gift card for my birthday and have, for the last 3 years spent it on extras for this game, but mostly I play without any real money.

I think I can wait a year to get a new plot or plots of land.
The fact that you had a million simoleons is impressive.
The most I have accumulated at one time might be 50,000 or whatever the last plot of land cost.
As I write this, I am seriously wondering why I need more land.
How does that work?
I move out a player. Do I still control that player?
Do I get more than 4 Sims to control?
I am slowly rethinking why I need more land.
I need to read more about this.
