My personal goal is to max out my bank and cash accounts, but I am hoping they introduce big ticket items to purchase.. like a 20 million credit luxury spaceliner etc.

Do we know what the max is for these accounts? Just curious

I do not have the time to expand my business really - being a mayor really sucks up a lot of free time. I am still trying to make wise investments though to help my money work for me. Currently I have been buying quality resources and holocrons as a way to earn "interest" because I believe these things will go up in value over time where as inflation will devalue the credit. What are other people "investing" in to try to make thier money work for them?

I currently have about 4 million inhigh quality resources, 20 holocrons, 30 pieces of art, 10 life day robes, 20 life day orbs (although most of the life day stuff I plan on giving away as prizes at city events). A few weapons experimentation and assembly tapes as well but I see those more as an investment into my business.

I believe it is 99 Million 999K for each of the bank account and cash credits... although you can then store extra in vendors and retrieve at will.. or pa halls

Well, I can say it is higher than that The bank account anyway - I havn't tried transfering that much to cash on hand.

I never thought about storing it on vendors, that is an interesting idea. Not that I trust the vendors... way too buggy for my life savings!

Don't trust your cash to the hired help!!!

I'm saving up for a starship.

Exactly my thoughts. Until I know how much it will be to buy and maintain 2 spaceships for both of my characters, I will keep earning as much money as I can.

Also I maintain not only 2 houses, a set of factories, and 2 character's worth of harvesters, but also another house for a group of my friends that don't have that much money.

I can't do that, because a couple of my kids started playing and they would tell on me :-)

On the other hand, playing Sugar Daddy to themhas proven fairly expensive, and the time involved has impacted my business, so my bank account hasn't grown much since I became a millionaire.

Satisfying though, I have lots more money and interesting contacts in SWG than RL anddon't have to worry about spoiling them any more. I can be a lot more generous than when they were little :-) I use the million mark as a gauge, if I get down close to that I cut back on the generosity and tend to business a little more.

Only problem is that we do a lot of hunting and exploring together, and their combat skills have gotten too far ahead of what I have points for. At this point, they are kind of dragging the old man along out of kindness. I don't contribute my share to the battle because I can't spare the skill points to keep up.

If the droid certifications went the way I would like, there would be a combat benefit to mastering at least some of the artisan based skills. As it is now, it is tempting to drop all of them and mine for cash. I would only need to pick up novice artisan when I needed to survey for new spots. It seems unfair that a pure combat character can get rich selling product, but a crafter is doomed to be feeble.

Far out...

I thought i was a succesful businessman until i read about some of the things truely successful business persons spend their money on!

Im not quite in that league .. buying dozens of full suits of armor to display in one of my castles .. or whatever.

I did almost reach 2 million credits recently .. but then i bought a holocron for 600,000 i found on a vendor.

Every now and then i upgrade my harvesters. I have 1 BER 10 medium mineral, and the rest are all BER 9.

Slowly ill make em all rate 10's. Idid buy1 full set of composite armor once. And thats about it really for major purchases.

Ive never even seen a Krayt Dragon or a Pearl for that matter. And never heard of a skill tape before.

I know an Architect who told me he has amassed 12 million, and intends to use it to buy resources to grind his holo professions someday.

What kind of game is SWG now?

Pre-CU:
Master Artisan, Master Shipwright, Master Merchant, Pistoleer 0020:
Favourite Weapon: FW-G5, Happy
After CU:
Much the same, but CL 54, Favourite Weapon FW-G5, Still happy
After NGE Game Downgrade:
Trader (Structures), same skills as every other trader in same specialty, CL2, can only use a CDEF, and no armor, NOT Happy -> Cancelled Account

There were people with over 100 million months ago.

If the database uses a 32-bit integer for bank balance, the limit would be approximately 4.3 billion.

What do other merchants and artisans spend their credits on?

Well i desided to take a break from resources when i hit 15mil to start some holo work on master musician

so ..before my break i payed about2-5 mil in rebuying resources a day (was being more of a pure merchant just reselling resources mostly) And i payed players (had some partners(3) at first but cut them a deal a mil each) and got 6 holo's and a twin force jeti crystal but im going to start the Mega Resources Shop (on Naboo,Moenia Naturius Server) back up to Make more cash for Space Ships and such alsoJeti will cost alot too. I do give some cash out to the guild town and thats it really until we get some ships i guess in the game right?
