TOP TEN THINGS TO SPEND EXCESS GROATAGE ON
by Hazed
The taxman is taking a holiday at the moment so the traditional limits on how much money it's safe to have in your personal balance don't apply. But one day, he will return and start levying taxes again! Given the large sums floating around due to compensation payments, that means people will have to find ways to spend their excess groatage. Here's the players' suggestions.
| 1. |
Buy lots and lots of rounds until everyone is very, very drunk. |
| 2. |
From a PO: Spend your groats buying up my surplus! |
| 3. |
Buy a lifetime's supply of chocolate for the demi-goddess. |
| 4. |
Buy the biggest ship in the Galaxy so you can ship the contents of an entire planet's exchange in one go. |
| 5. |
Impress the neighbors by buying a new ship each time you run out of fuel. |
| 6. |
From a Financier: bribe Slarti's to "accidently" promote all the Fins but me to Founder so there's no more competition for shares. |
| 7. |
Become a philanthropist and donate all your wealth to charity. The demi-goddess's chocolate fund, for example. |
| 8. |
Find a way to reverse the process whereby POs can turn slithies into groats. |
| 9. |
Buy up the rights to the wilderness on Earth and throw the wildest private parties ever. Or alternatively, buy Starbase1 - as Ariadne said, "No parties... it'd all be MINE. Trespassers will be shot!" |
| 10. |
Spend them on a hitman to ensure that the taxman never actually comes back at all... |
Thanks to Seria, Bourbon, Nut, Furgas and Ariadne for their suggestons.
