Real Life/Tropes F-N: Difference between revisions

* [[Money for Nothing]]: Averted '''''hard'''''. There's just so much stuff to be bought with the in-game currency that you will ''never'' have too much money. Oh sure, the other players may say you do, especially indulging in [[Conspicuous Consumption]], there are always charities to give that money to.

** Oh, you can get Money for Nothing. It's called "arbitrage" and only really works [[Fridge Logic|if you already have]] [[Unstable Equilibrium|a lot of money in the first place]].

* [[Money Sink]]: Some of which are required to ''survive''. Real estate is a popular one whose necessity for survival is somewhat debatable, as is haut couture fashion.

* [[Morally-Ambiguous Doctorate]]: Widely subverted, as those with the discipline to pursue these achievements tend to be upright players.
