Also I have seen some fantastic screenshots in the showcase board and wish some folks wouldn't just pile endless buildings on their land for no reason.

Isn't one Krustyburger or Kwik E Mart enough? Twenty white houses in a row is also OTT in my opinion.

it's not pretty but it's a quick and easy way to make money, think it's called house farming.

It's like wanting a car and instead of making monthly payments, deciding to drive an old crap car for a while and to take on a boring, tedious, repetitive part-time job at minimum wage, with lousy hours, plodding along saving up the money all at once and then buying the car.

It was how things used to be done in the old days when we couldn't get things on installment plans or credit. You saved up money. When you had all the money, you got what you were aiming for. Meanwhile, you had zip to show for it. You drove the cfrap car, and put a bumper sticker on it saying "Don't laugh. It's paid for." ;)

I wouldn't consider housefarming easy. Its frustrating. Some of us aren't willing to do it that way. We're too impatient and want to see some positive results along the way.

It's not something I'm willing to do in my main town, but that's because I'm impatient. ;)
